A FARNBOROUGH woman is preparing to jump 10,000ft to raise money for the Anthony Nolan Bone Marrow Trust.

Angela Deegan, 34, decided to skydive after her nephew was diagnosed with leukemia.

James McCullough, 14, of Shortlands Road, Bromley, is waiting for a bone marrow transplant.

Mrs Deegan, of Isabella Road, said: “I want to raise awareness of the charity as well as money.

“Some people think it's complicated to become a bone marrow donor but it's not.”

Her experience will be filmed by Carlton television and screened on October 8.

Anyone interested in making a donation to the Anthony Nolan Trust or registering as a bone marrow donor, should call 020 7284 1234.
