Our Fundraisers In Memory of

Scott and Mike Thurlow

• Chris Thurlow raised £1,077.50 through taking part in a tandem skydive: “The tandem skydive was to mark my 70th birthday, and in memory of my nephew Scott and brother Mike. Scott died suddenly from an undiagnosed heart condition in February 1999 at the age of 27, and his father, my brother Mike, passed away in February 2015. Mike’s heart condition was only diagnosed less than three years before he died, and he had cardiomyopathy, as did his son Scott. Thanks to the generosity of family, friends, members of the Rotary Club of Grantham Kesteven and members of the Grantham Tennis Club, a large total was raised for two very worthy causes.

“I made the tandem skydive on my 70th birthday, 8 August 2015, during a family holiday in Portugal. I jumped from a height of 14,000ft above Portimao Airport on the Algarve, Portugal, from a Dornier 28 aircraft. Freefall lasted about one minute, during which we dropped at approximately 120mph before the chute opened and we descended for several minutes – before landing ‘on the spot’ at Portimao Airport.

• Leo and Della Tudisca sent in a donation of £953 raised by Jason Whittingham.

In Memory of

Jayden Tullett

Dawn Tullett took part in the Birmingham Color Run and raised £340.

In Memory of

Hannah Turberville

Brian Turberville sent in a total of £125, including £50 from Keith Sherman and family: “Each year Keith gives me a gift for CRY for Hannah’s fund, and he was largely responsible for more than £4,000 raised in December 2014 at our ball.” “All my family were there to watch me, and they said I was very calm (on the ground). I must admit to some apprehension as we shuffled towards the exit of the aircraft, but as we exited and dropped in freefall, it was an amazing feeling, and certainly a very special way to mark my 70th birthday. I asked my family to sponsor me instead of buying presents, and I am so pleased to have raised funds in memory of Scott and Mike.”
