Erikka becomes a Booby Bird

Here's the storyContact Us
I'm going to raise £20,000 and then jump out of a plane. The £20,000 goes to cancer research and support in Scotland.

I'm jumping with 19 others. We are the Booby Birds. Check out the official website at www.boobybirds.co.uk.
The idea of jumping out of a plane terrifies me. But that is the point. The jump is meant to aproximate the fear a person might feel when diagnosed with breast cancer.

In Scotland, one woman every 3 hours is diagnosed with breast cancer and one woman dies of the disease every 7 hours. That's mums, sisters, wives, girlfriends and daughters.

I'm doing this because it's time for me to Give Something Back. I'm fortunate in that I'm healthy, have a good job, a loving husband and family and I enjoy life. I can spend some of my time ruthlessly exploiting my contacts in the business community to raise money for people who've just gone into freefall.

The funds raised will be split accordingly:
50% to Scottish breast cancer charities;
35% invested to support breast cancer projects now and in the future;
etc
