The Big Leaaap 2024

To book onto this incredible experience, please book directly with UK Parachuting here: 

• For Beccles
• For Peterborough

You will be asked to pay a £50 registration fee to confirm your place. There are no additional fees to pay but by booking onto this event you pledge to raise a minimum of £300. You will only have to pay extra on the day if you do not reach your fundraising target or if you would like to purchase the video/photo packages. 

By signing up to The Big Leaaap in aid of East Anglian Air Ambulance, you pledge to raise a minimum of £300. If you are unable to raise £300 prior to the date of your skydive, you have a few options to choose from: 

• Defer your skydive to another day to give you more time to fundraise 
• Self-fund the cost of your place and pay the balance of your skydive on the day 

Please let us know at least one month prior to event day if you feel that you will be unable to raise the £300 target and we will help you to decide how you would like to proceed.

When you sign up, we will send you an EAAA fundraising pack with lots of hints and tips on ways to meet your fundraising target. Most people choose to collect their fundraising online, this is handy as it keeps all your donations in one place, and the money is transferred to EAAA automatically, so less admin for you! 

Absolutely! Please make your booking directly with UK Parachuting and let us know the date you will be skydiving instead. If you are self-funding your skydive (ie paying the full cost yourself) there is no minimum sponsorship requirement. However, if you only pay the £50 registration fee, we will expect a minimum of £300 to be raised before the date of your skydive. If you have already arranged a skydive with another venue and have chosen to fundraise for us when doing so – we’d love to hear all about it and would be happy to send you some fundraising materials to help!
