Louth great-grandmother raises thousands with charity skydive
Daredevil Mary Clover, of High Holme Road, loved the experience on June 30 so much that she even took to the skies again later that day to enjoy second skydive!
Mary’s daughter, Nicola, has revealed that at least £2,500 has been raised for the air ambulance, with more donations to be collected.

Hide AdNicola said: “She’s still got that beaming smile on her face.
“It was a shock to us too that she did another skydive.
“The first one was so successful, she absolutely loved it. When we asked how she felt she said “It’s out of this world, indescribable, if I could go up again I would”. The beaming smile on her face said it all.
“While we were sat having a cup of tea afterwards it was announced that any spectators interested in having a go there were some available spaces. Straight away my mum said: “That’s it, I’m going again!”
“When she came down the second time she said “If they do a 3-for-2 offer I’ll go again... but I’ll need a cup of tea first!”

“I’m so lucky to have her as my mum, she’s such an inspiration!”
