Slough estate agent charity skydive!
Monday, August 8, 2016
Jumping out of a plane at 15,000’ is not everyone’s idea of fun but that’s exactly what (brave but crazy) Lee Moss from our Slough office is going to do with just one of the Red Devils* team and a parachute for company! Spurred on by colleagues, he’s doing the tandem skydive in Nottingham on 8th September in memory of Doreen “Dee” Farrer and to raise money for Thames Hospice who cared for her in her final weeks. Lee has a justgiving page set up and running. Please support him with a generous donation if you possibly can.

Actors and musicians are drawn by proximity to both Pinewood and Shepperton Studios and surrounding areas have often been used as film locations. In Wraysbury itself, one of the lakes was used as the scene for the disposal of 007’s car in the James Bond movie, A View to A Kill . Access to London, its theatres, society events and all that the capital offers is another lure for both stars and mere mortals alike.
