Our Teams Take on a Skydive for Make-A-Wish

Six of us. One aircraft. A 10,000ft drop.

And, as it turns out, a little more time to prepare than we expected.

Our skydive in aid of Make-A-Wish UK was originally scheduled for 15 May, but due to in climate weather, our jump will now take place on Friday 7th August! We’ve had more time to train, more time to mentally prepare (we hope), and crucially, more time to raise funds for a cause that deserves every cent.

Make-A-Wish grants life-changing wishes to children and young people living with critical illnesses. For families navigating an incredibly difficult time, a wish granted – whether it’s meeting a hero, visiting somewhere magical, or simply having a day that feels truly theirs — can provide hope and joy when it’s needed most.

The SHB team has been proud to support Make-A-Wish for a number of years. Raising over £60,000 is a milestone we’re genuinely proud of, and one that reflects the long-term commitment from everyone across our group who has fundraised, donated, and taken part over the years. This skydive is the next chapter.

What makes this challenge particularly meaningful is how it is bringing our wider ecosystem together. Four members of the SHB team and two from Papilio Property Management all signed up for the same challenge this July.

SHB Real Estate and Papilio work in close collaboration, sharing a central mission alongside one another across the full range of real estate acquisitions, management, occupation and strategy services.

With the rescheduled date now 7th August 2026, the team has continue their efforts to fundraise before the jump. Every donation – however large or small – goes directly towards granting wishes for children and young people who need them most.

We’ll report back from the ground with our final updates. Thank you in advance to anyone who contributes to this challenge for charity.
