Kind-hearted student sky dives for charity

NULC student Kimberley Fieldhouse has taken part in a sky dive to raise money for charity.


Kind-hearted Kimberley aged 17 from Clayton is in her second year at NULC's Sixth Form Centre, studying A Levels in Law, Psychology and Media Studies.  Kimberley has organised a range of local events over the past year including a number of bag packs at local Sainsburys stores, an abseil, two sky dives and a charity night all to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.

Kimberley decided to do a sky dive as it was something she had always wanted to do and also knew that such a courageous act would raise a lot of money for her beloved charity.  The reason Kimberley raises so much money for Cystic Fibrosis is one close to her heart: "My cousin died four years ago when she was only 21 years old of this genetic disease, and I've been passionate to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis charity ever since."

Kimberley roped in a number of family and friends in to the fundraising including her boyfriends dad George Carter, her next door neighbour Lee Brereton, her cousin Melaine Lloyd and fellow NULC students Jack Owen and Josh Morris and Kirsty Paige.

The sky dive took place at Langar Airfield in Nottingham on 27 August last year on the day of her cousin's memorial.

Kimberley says: "I really enjoy all my charity work it's something i will continue to do well into the future and not just for Cystic Fibrosis but for all other charities as well.  So far I've helped to raise money for the North Staffs Children's Adventure Playground, the Donna Louise Trust and Sir Stanley Matthews Foundation."

Kimberley really is an inspirational student who has done a lot fundraising for the local community.  Everyone at NULC would like to congratulate you on such a fantastic effort and wish you success in future events.
