Linda Baker from Eastbourne, who is also a Sussex Air Ambulance Volunteer, has raised over £2,300 for the charity over the last year through donations to her JustGiving Website page.

 

Her fundraising event was called " My Triple Whammy"  because she started with a Slimathon, to lose at least 3 stone.

 

Once she had lost 2 stone she was allowed to do a Parachute Jump in aid of the Air Ambulance and if she lost a further stone in weight, she would be light enough to do the "Wing Walk" which was her personal goal.

 

She achieved her desired weight by September and completed her Wing Walk as the picture demonstrates. Her local paper followed her progress and many friends and supporters helped her to raise the money.
