Wightlink to carry the Olympic Torch from the New Forest to the Isle of Wight on 14th July
On Sunday 26th June at Old Sarum airfield near Salisbury, in perfect weather conditions nine ‘volunteers’ skydived 7000 feet out of a light aircraft for a tandem parachute jump on behalf of the British Liver Trust, whose headquarters are based in Ringwood. Over £8,000 was raised for the charity.
Jo Barker who organized the charity jump even arranged for a TFT therapist to be present to help those who were nervous or fearful of jumping. Those skydiving included a woman who had received a liver transplant and someone else who was celebrating her 60th birthday.
