Ashmole & Co’s thrill seeking staff will skydive to raise funds for Tenovus Cancer Care

Nine Ashmole & Co staff will take on the ultimate thrill-seeking challenge next month to help raise funds for Tenovus Cancer Care. Nine of the accountancy firm’s staff, from across south Wales, have agreed to do a tandem skydive!

Just weeks after walking twelve miles along the Swansea coastal path to raise funds, the group of staff are now gearing up to do something they have never done before – a tandem skydive over the Gower coastline.

Karl Wilcox, Partner in Ashmole and Co’s Cardigan office and one of those doing the skydive said, “We recently launched a year of fundraising in aid of Tenovus Cancer Care. Everyone knows someone who has been affected by cancer or has a family member receiving treatment themselves. We were keen to support a cancer charity based in Wales and all the funds raised would be used to support those affected by cancer in Wales. We hope our clients and friends will help us raise as much money as possible for this extremely worthy cause.”

Skydiving is the ultimate thrill-seeking challenge where you enjoy the exhilarating and unforgettable feeling of flying through the clouds from over 10,000ft at up to 120 mph! For tandem skydives, participants can complete their training and jump on the same day. They can let a British Parachuting Association instructor do all the work while they enjoy the ride!

Those taking part in this thrill-seeking adventure on Saturday, 5 October, are: Karl Wilcox, Partner and Max Geary, Trainee Accountant from the Cardigan office; Eirian Evans, Payroll & HR Manager, based in Carmarthen; Vinal Patel, Partner, based in Ammanford and Carmarthen; Sam Jones, Accountant and Gareth Thomas, Trainee Accountant from the Llandeilo office; Kane Williams, Accountant from the Ammanford office; Rachel Jones, Payroll Clerk and Matthew Price, Payroll Assistant from the Haverfordwest office.
