Skydives
Take on an adrenaline challenge, wow your friends and fly high to support cutting-edge arthritis research.
Create sky high impact
Have you ever fancied jumping out of a plane from 10,000 feet and experiencing speeds of around 125mph? – then this is the charity challenge for you!
A truly memorable and fulfilling experience that you’ll remember for a lifetime. You can take on a tandem skydive, strapped to a fully qualified instructor who does all the work, while you enjoy the thrill, and soak up the views.
Costs
You can either choose to pay for the jump yourself, with costs ranging from £270 to £340, or jump for Arthritis UK and raise a minimum sponsorship target of between £395 and £450, depending on your chosen drop zone.
Jump in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland or Wales – the choice is yours. You can find all locations listed on the Skyline website. Skyline is trusted by 3,000 charities, has 25 years experience and has a friendly, expert team to provide all the support you need to book, and on the day of your jump.

14 of my family, ranging in age from 18 to 54, did a 15,000ft skydive. Go for it! Tell everyone you can about what you're doing and why. Together, we can make a big difference.
Stuart and his family defy gravity for Arthritis UK
Our dad and grandad sadly passed in March 2024. He had rheumatoid arthritis for over 40 years and was in pain most days. Fourteen members of our family, ranging in age from 18-54 did a 15,000ft skydive to honour Hugh's memory and raise money for arthritis research. We thought if we can help others not to have to go through the pain, it would be a great achievement.
Stuart Edwards, fundraising in memory
