A4e's Karl Gurney, who is a member of the Devon & Cornwall District Support team - is doing a tandem sky dive on the 25th September, to raise funds for Crohn's and Colitis UK. Karl, said: "This is also to show support for Ali who is my best mate, who has been battling Crohn's for the last 10 years, and undergone four operations. I wanted to give something back to the charity that supported Ali when she needed help the most. Being the plonker I am, throwing myself out of a plane at 15,000 feet seemed like a good way to do this!" Karl's sky dive will take place at Honiton in Devon on Saturday the 25th September, at 2.00 pm.
