10 years ago we saw 25 Snakehall Superheroes, led by our original Legend Ron, skydive to help raise 25K for 25 years. In this anniversary milestone of 35 years of The Prospects Trust we are looking to see more super skydivers help us raise 35K for 35 years and JUMP for Prospects. Date: Sunday 4th August 2024

You can donate to our individual Skydivers on their LocalGiving Pages or if you just want to support them all you can donate on our general appeal page: The Prospects Trust’s 35th Anniversary Sky Dive 4th August 2024 | Localgiving
We are still adding more jumpers to our page but for now meet those that are ready to jump for Prospects and take a look at their appeal pages too:
Wendy’s Sky High Prospects | Localgiving Wendy is a regular Bank Staff member at Prospects Trust Unwrapped (and sometimes Snakehall Farm) but is also the friendiest Porter at Princess of Wales Hospital in Ely. “I am thinking of charging a wheelchair taxi rate to take everyone up to X-ray as a way to raise my funds” Wendy wants to do this jump as much as her husband doesn’t want her to – so go on donate if you can to help a lovely woman prove to her man its all worth it!
Soaring for SuperRon | Localgiving Our Finance and Compliance Manager and longest serving Staff Member Rhian was part of the original Snakehall SuperHero Sky Dive 10 years ago. Inspired back then to jump alongside our very beloved Super Ron (and her much missed Father-in-Law) Rhian is jumping again in memory of Ron and all that he did for Snakehall Farm. The question is will she lose her voice this time around?
Sky Dive for the prospects trust | Localgiving Meet the amazing Laura Brown who has been pulled into this fundraising challenge by her so called mates! She is part of a crew of supporters of The Prospects Trust and the charity is so grateful for our wider farm friends taking the plunge for us.
Utterly terrifying skydive in aid of The Prospects Trust | Localgiving Deputy Farm Manager Tibbles is a little bit terrified about this. A self confessed hater of rollercoasters and our very essential Mr Fixit on the Farm – we need him to nonchalantly lean forward and land safely otherwise nothing will be working back at our charity HQ!
Lucy’s crazy skydive for The Prospects Trust | Localgiving Lucy T is a familiar face at Snakehall Farm as an external Support Worker to one of our regular Co-workers. She has her son on ground crew watching his Mum take a great leap for The Prospects Trust and help raise essential funds to help over 88 people with additional needs “grow”.
Falling For Unwrapped | Localgiving Meet the Unwrapped Team from Ely’s favourite corner shop with a difference. Manager Clare and her very trusty side kick Mandy will be joined by Mandy’s family on a team jump. Their comfort zone is behind the counter in a pinny, not soaring through the skies so this is a real challenge of bravery and team do. We reckon once they safely land all our customers will be enjoying extra frothy coffees with a handful of clouds.
Aimée’s stupid skydive for Prospects trust | Localgiving Aimée is not content for the challenge of jumping shes also gone tee-total and healthy eating to ensure she is fit to jump. Her About me is almost as funny as her photo – go on check it out.
Skydive for The Prospects Trust | Localgiving The first to sign up meet our Snakehall Farm Chicken Pro Karen and her mate Karen. Bringing support from across the border our Norfolk lasses have been super excited about this challenge from Day 1 and we really hope they soar for Snakehall Farm and the happiest hens in the world thanks to Karen’s eagle eye.
Mum and Daughter, Maz and Ena, catch clouds for their charity The Prospects Trust | Localgiving Throw away the Business Continuity Plan – we are even letting our ED do the jump – Maz Baker and her daughter Ena (one of our Junior Crew at Prospects Trust Unwrapped) are joining forces, holding hands and jumping together for their favourite charity in the whole wide world.
Skydive for The Prospects Trust | Localgiving Supporter Chris didn’t know the start time was 7:30am sharp on a Sunday morning when he signed up (or was that signed up by……?) for this challenge but we know he will be wide awake as he leaps out of the plane.
I’m jumping out of a plane…again! | Localgiving You can never really leave The Prospects Trust and our former Farm Deputy and People Manager Hannah Austin is still one of our favourite faces at Snakehall Farm. Hannah was part of the orginal crew 10 years ago so again drummed up support, enrolled her friends and even her Managers at Guyatt House to join her daring do.
