Premier Members Take the Leap for Bradbury Fields

Two Premier Networking members took networking to a whole new height recently, jumping from an incredible 15,000ft to raise money for Bradbury Fields..

Kris Tisdale and Jay Cluskey swapped the relative comfort of their Friday morning networking meetings for an aeroplane, a parachute and one very long way down as they completed their charity skydive on 7 August.

Most importantly, their efforts resulted in a fantastic £3,420 being raised for Bradbury Fields, including Gift Aid.

Bradbury Fields is a Liverpool-based charity providing vital services and support to blind and partially sighted people, helping those living with sight loss to maintain their independence, build confidence and access the practical support they need.

For both Kris and Jay, the skydive represented a considerable personal challenge.

Thankfully, both made it safely back to solid ground, and the nerves were more than worthwhile given the incredible amount raised.

A Huge Thank You to the Premier Community

One of the most impressive parts of the fundraising effort was the support shown by fellow Premier Networking members.

A large number of members contributed to the fundraising, helping Kris and Jay push the total higher and demonstrating once again the generosity and community spirit that exists throughout Premier.

Kris and Jay would like to say a massive thank you to every Premier member who sponsored them, shared their fundraising pages, encouraged them and helped them reach such a fantastic total.

Premier has always been about more than simply exchanging business referrals. It is about building genuine relationships, supporting one another and using the strength of our network to make a positive difference in the wider community.

Raising £3,420 for Bradbury Fields is a brilliant example of exactly that.

Congratulations to Kris and Jay for having the courage to take on the challenge, and thank you once again to everybody who got behind them.

We suspect they’ll both be keeping their feet firmly on the ground for a little while.

Kris and Jay commented it was the best 121 they have every had.
