Alison makes a ‘leap of love’ to raise £3,000 for Derian House

Congratulations to Holy Cross Administration Manager Alison Higginbotham who completed the highest skydive available in the UK – 15,000ft – alongside her good friend, Stuart.

They’d originally planned to complete the skydive on Mother’s Day at the end of March, but due to high winds, it was rearranged for Sunday 4th May.

With online and offline donations plus Gift Aid, Alison’s ‘leap of love’ has so far raised almost £3,000 for Derian House Children’s Hospice in Chorley.

2024-25 is our Year of Compassion here at College, and Alison's fundraising skydive is the perfect embodiment of this – well done!
