The Irish Parachute Club

The Irish Parachute Club, based in Clonbullogue Airfield, Co Offaly
offers a reduced cost for Charity Skydives. The cost of a Charity Tandem Skydive is € 295.00 per person, (normal cost is €335 + booking fee).

Each person is asked to raise a minimum of €590.00, with € 295.00 paying for the jump and the remaining € 295.00 going to the Charity. A €50 deposit per person is required, and the remaining balance of €245 needs to be made 10 days before, to secure your place.

If you plan on fundraising to help cover the cost of your jump, we recommend using the sponsorship cards provided by the club. The Irish Cancer Society is unable to forward funds raised through online platforms to your jump provider.

Once you have fundraised the cost of the skydive, you can contact the Irish
Parachute Club on 046 9730103 or visit www.skydive.ie to book a date for your jump.

Please register with the Irish Cancer Society through the link below, as the
Parachute Club require this confirmation before proceeding. If you have any
questions, you can contact us on 0818 10 20 30 or fundraising@irishcancer.ie

Fundraising Information

With both clubs you have two options to fund your skydive:

  • You can choose to cover the cost of the charity skydive rate yourself (€240 or €280 depending on your choice of provider) and fundraise for the remaining amount
  • You can fundraise to cover the cost of your skydive (raising a total of at least €480 or €560 depending on your choice of provider). With this method we ask that you be transparent with supporters and let them know that a portion of donations will go to cover the cost of your skydive.
  • Please discuss the best way to fundraise with your chosen provider as they may have certain requirements that you will need to follow. If you plan to fundraise to cover the cost of your skydive we would recommend using the sponsorship cards provided by the club and collecting cash. The Irish Cancer Society is unable to forward the funds raised through online platforms to your provider if you have fundraised online to cover the cost of your jump
  • Please register your skydive fundraiser with the Irish Cancer Society through the link below. If you have any questions contact us on 0818 10 20 30 or at fundraising@irishcancer.ie
