A daredevil accountant jumped 10,000ft out of a plane despite her fear of heights - all to raise money for a healthcare charity.
Jasmeet Dhaliwal, raised an impressive £540 for Your Trust Charity, which is run by Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust, by undertaking the skydive.
She said: “Initially I was apprehensive as I have a big fear of heights. The parachute doesn’t open until you reach 5,000ft and you’re travelling at speeds of up to 120mph.
“However I overcame this fear as I wanted to raise money for Your Trust Charity. I work at the hospital as a Senior Management Accountant, and had heard about the amazing work the charity does for our patients.”
Brave Jasmeet said of the stunt which took place in Whitchurch, Shropshire: “It was a thrilling experience and it means that the money raised will enhance the journey of our patients, their loved ones, and staff. It was definitely worthwhile.”
“It’s been an amazing. I believe you only live life once and it’s made me realise that you shouldn’t be fearful of anything.
“You can do everything and anything as long as you believe in yourself.”
