Ramsdens Solicitors
very own Queen of adrenaline, Julie Ellam from our Litigation team took to the
skies…all for charity.
She was finally able to
take to the sky and complete her wing-walk in aid of The Kirkwood Hospice,
after almost two-years of postponements.
The
flight lasted approximately 10 minutes and saw Julie travelling
speeds up to 120 mph and flying between 100 – 500 feet off the ground!
Commenting
on the experience, Julie said: “It was out of this world weird when taking
off as my cheeks were wobbling. It was a bit daunting when from going side to
side as I got that ‘falling off’ feeling but it was an amazing experience and
I’m so glad I did it.”
So
far Julie has managed to raise over £2,500,
which is absolutely incredible!
Julie
was supported by her family and colleagues Paul Booth and Nick Armitage…both
Partners in our Litigation team.
Julia
Owen, Community Fundraiser for The Kirkwood said: “It was great to finally
see Julie take to the skies and complete her adrenaline-fuelled
challenge. We’re incredibly grateful to all our fundraisers and hope to
see more of these events taking place as lockdown eases.”
Donations in
support of her wing walk can still be made online.
