Nottingham skydivesBack for the third year running, the Nottingham Trent University Skydive is set raise more money for local charities through their annual charity tandem skydive.

Tandem jumping is a great way to raise money as you need a lot of courage and that will help you to sign up lots of sponsors! You'll be exiting a perfectly good aircraft, along with your fully qualified instructor from the height of 15000ft., and accelerating towards the ground at speeds approaching 120 miles per hour.

Fundraising is easy when you tell people what you've opted to go through, and as long as you raise the minimum amount, the charity will pay for your jump.

In 2012, the RAG is is fundraising for:

  • Nottingham University Hospitals
  • When you Wish Upon a Star
  • World Child Cancer

When Can I Jump?
The Nottingham Trent RAG charity skydive takes place on Saturday 21st April 2012. You will need to reach a target of £400 to get your jump paid for.

A deposit of £50 is required in advance to secure your place which is payable to the RAG Office.


Information Evening
The organisers are holding an information evening on Monday 7th November at 6-7pm in the Newton Lecture Theatre 1, City Campus.
