A BRAVE mother-of-two is jumping out of a plane to raise money for a cancer charity in memory of her late grandmother.
Vicky Clarke, 30, has raised nearly £1,000 in sponsorship for the World Cancer Research Fund in memory of Eileen Clarke.
Eileen, who had 11 children and ten grandchildren, was diagnosed with womb cancer over a year ago which then spread to her liver.
Despite undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment for nearly a year, she died in May aged 79.
Vicky said: “I don’t feel nervous or scared, I’m not somebody who is scared about heights but I’ve never been that high before.”
