It's a bird...it's a plane...it's Maggie, the 90-year-old skydiver!

by Simon Bottery, Director of Fundraising, Policy and Communications

I drove up to Northants on Sunday to witness the remarkable Maggie White leap out of a plane at 12000 feet to celebrate her 90th birthday (and raise money for Independent Age and another charity).

She was inspired to do it, said her relatives, because a friend in her 70s had done it. That's the thing about older people, easily influenced... Thank you Maggie.
