THE managing director of a homecare company has planned his next venture to raise money for Good Hope Hospital in Sutton Coldfield.
Tinga Umera, managing director of Nexus Care Services, is no stranger to taking on challenges for charity. Over the last few years he has participated in the Wolverhampton 10K, raising more than £3,000 for Cardiac Risk in the Young, hiked in the Peak District in aid of Cancer Research and climbed the Wrekin in Telford for the Race Against Dementia.
His latest venture will see him take to the skies with a skydiving adventure planned for Saturday, May 16.
All funds raised will be going towards supporting the work of Good Hope Hospital. The charity helps deliver the additional care and resources to patients and families that fall outside standard NHS funding.
Tinga said: “I’ve always enjoyed challenging myself and raising money for causes close to my heart.
“Skydiving is a first for me, but if it helps support Good Hope Hospital and the incredible work they do, it’s worth the jump. I hope people will get behind it and help make a difference to the people who need this funding.”
Nexus has supported Good Hope Hospital for a number of years, including the team’s most recent Christmas toy drive.
