Cleveland ACF

Good luck!✨

Help us wish Cleveland ACF's Lieutenant Colonel Hunter the very best of luck this weekend as he takes part in a 14,000 foot skydive in support of ACCT UK and Butterwick Hospice, a charity close to his heart.

As a member of the Army Cadet Force for over 30 years, Darren has seen first-hand the impact of fundraising events like his, with the money raised by our fantastic fundraising community going directly back to support every ACF county, battalion, and sector.

Every single ACCT UK fundraiser helps us provide cadets and adult volunteers in the community with training, qualifications and opportunities that build confidence, resilience, and valuable life skills.

Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel Hunter, for choosing to support ACCT UK. And good luck for Saturday's big jump!
