Skydiving
October 2010
Tricia, 70, resident at MHA Auchlochan, completed a skydive/parachute jump to raise funds for sensory equipments for people living with dementia at Auchlochan. Tricia, and a group of her fellow residents and staff, also completed a 5k run the following week. They have already raised over £4,000!
Tricia says "Walking on clouds was amazing! My family told me I wouldn't have done it had I not moved to Auchlochan! I feel very humbled at the amount of interest this has caused."
