Take the Leap for 100 Years of Cats Protection!

Join us in Truro, Salisbury or Old Sarum in 2027 for an unforgettable charity skydive and help us celebrate 100 years of Cats Protection! Take on the ultimate adrenaline-fuelled challenge while raising vital funds to help cats and kittens in need. You’ll experience a tandem skydive with an expert instructor, soaring to around 10,000 feet before free-falling at speeds of up to 120 mph. 
Once your parachute opens, enjoy breath-taking views as you make your gentle descent back to earth.

No experience is needed — just courage, enthusiasm and a love of cats! Be part of our centenary celebrations, make your leap count and help us start the next 100 years with a difference.

How we are helping cats right across the South West region

By taking part in our Southwest Centenary Charity Skydive, you’ll be helping Cats Protection continue a century-long commitment to improving the lives of cats across the Southwest — including cats who are often overlooked, such as feral and community cats.
The Southwest is home to an estimated 0.9 million cats, and many cats living in communities face challenges accessing food, shelter and veterinary care.
Your fundraising will help Cats Protection provide vital support where it is needed most — from food, shelter and veterinary care to helping cats find loving forever homes.

Every pound you raise from your skydive can help us continue this vital work and ensure cats across the Southwest have the chance of a healthier, happier future.

When you join Team Cats, you’ll get a first-class experience including:
  • dedicated and bespoke support and encouragement from our team, who will be there with you every step of the way
  • a brilliant fundraising pack containing fundraising resources, guides, information, tips and ideas, and sponsorship forms
  • practical fundraising support
  • free branded t-shirt or head buff  to wear with pride on the day
