Only 3 days before Lorna Prince jumps out of a plane for the GSPCA please sponsor her

In only 3 days on Saturday 1st September a very brave Lorna Prince who is the GSPCA Welfare Manager has decided to do something to help the many animals at the Shelter. Lorna is not keen on heights at all and even less keen of falling but she has signed up to jump out of a plane at 10,000 feet over Guernsey in a tandem Skydive.

Lorna is doing this to raise funds for the Shelter and she needs your support.
