Home Manager At Nottinghamshire Home Jumps Out Of Plane At 14,000 Ft And Raises Over £2000

A home manager at a Nottinghamshire home decided to really get out of her comfort zone by jumping out of a plane to raise funds for her home.

Loren Roseberry works as home manager at MHA The Herons and wanted to do a challenge that would really test her to raise funds for the home’s garden project.

She took part in a Skydive on the 13th of September at the Langer Airfield in Nottingham.

So far Loren has managed to raise over £2000, with donations still coming in, much to her delight.

Speaking after the challenge Loren said:
“During the build up to the day I was completely blanked out and didn’t think about what I was doing at all.

“It really hit home when I arrived at the airfield, and I did start to get nervous.

“You are in the plane for about 20 minutes before you reach the right height of 14,000 ft and that was nerve wracking.

“Once I made the jump it did take a little while before I settled down, and I was so happy when it was over, and it’s definitely something I won’t do again!.

“The team at Langer Airfield were very supportive and professional, and I was very impressed with the way they work.

“When I came back into the office, I was greeted with an office full of balloons and a card from the staff.

“I went around and spoke with the residents, who were all very proud of me and gave me lots of hugs.

“The plan is to start to get the ball rolling with the garden. I am hoping to have some conversations with residents to see what flowers they want and will survive the cold weather we will have coming up.

“I am very happy with the money raised so far, part of me doing a challenge such as a skydive was I knew my friends and family would pay good money to see me do something like this.

“I want to thank everyone who supported and donated to the cause, we all really appreciate it and I am sure it will go a long way.”
