A grandmother is celebrating turning 60 with a charity sky dive in memory of her mum.
Administrator Annette Smith, 59, will be undertaking the tandem jumps to raise funds for Farleigh Hospice on May 3.
The charity supported her mum, Beryl, after she was diagnosed with terminal bowel cancer in 1997.
Annette said: “She was 70 years old and although some of you might think that she'd had a good innings, she was vigorously pursuing her life and enjoying her family, so her diagnosis was a huge blow to her.
“The one thing that gave her peace of mind in the few months leading to her death in 1998 was Farleigh Hospice."
