Take Flight give fundraisers licence to thrill

THE Stratford-upon-Avon Cancer and Eye Hospital Appeal is offering people the chance to experience a once-in-a-lifetime adrenaline-fuelled flying challenge, whilst raising money for a fantastic cause.

During the weekend of the 12th and 13th November, daring thrill seekers will be able to take to the sky and see the picturesque countryside of South Warwickshire from a completely different viewpoint.

Participants will have a private flying lesson, with demonstrations of loop the loop, all while a camera is recording so they can look back on their experience.

Ali Gray, fundraising manager at the South Warwickshire Foundation Trust, experienced first-hand what the event is all about recently when she was treated to a flight in one of the company’s aircraft, pictured above.

To take part all you have to do is raise a minimum of £300 sponsorship.
