Skydiving at 84? A Wakefield story
Previous winner of a ѿý Radio Leeds Make A Difference Award, Monica Graham, planned a skydive to raise funds for a new roof for the local community centre. This centre, which she transformed from a derelict primary school, now serves as a vibrant hub for all ages, offering activities from nurseries to elderly groups. Monica's skydive not only aims to gather financial support but also to inspire others by showing what can be achieved with determination and community spirit.
