Charity
Action for Children is a children's charity that supports and speaks out for the UK's most vulnerable children and young people. We have been working with the UK’s most vulnerable children since 1869. We believe all children and young people have unique potential and that they should have the support and opportunities they need to reach it. Action for Children helps nearly 156,000 children, young people and their families through nearly 420 projects across the UK. We also promote social justice by lobbying and campaigning for change. Today, Action for Children is the leading UK provider of family and community centres, children's services in rural areas, services for disabled children and their families, and services for young people leaving care. We provide services in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, and we also support work in Southern Africa, the Caribbean and Central America.

CHARITY SKY DIVE
I have been involved with action for children for a few years now. I say 'involved', I have had the pleasure of invites to great fun events where I have met lovely people, been wined and dined and had the thrill of an exclusive audience watching the BUDDIES perform! I have been on Celebrity 'Who wants to be a millionaire' Where I raised £25,000, it would have been 50,000 if ONLY I'd rung Will Rayner my VERY clever friend. Frankly Action For Children has given me far more than I have given them so I thought it was time to put my money where my mouth was. In approximately three weeks time I will be jumping out of a plane, with my new friend Tamar, to raise money for my charity, Action For Children, who work tirelessly to help vunerable and negelcted children across Great Britain. The purpose is to raise money for this charity to whom I am devoted, and to encourage others to Take Your Action For Children!! I am eternally grateful for your support and sponsorship, and for taking the time to give whatever you can. THANKYOU!!!!!
