OK, bit of cheeky one this, but does anyone know where I can get hold of a parachute that is no longer air worthy/useable for the purpose of saving life after leaping out of a serviceable aeroplane?
Mrs NikNak works with children who are less able than the norm', and they've recently established a course to develop the childrens sense of perception/touch and spatial orientation. The person who developed the course recommended the use of a parachute, suspended from the ceiling, and other groups have found it works very well, (don't ask me how - but it does).
They can't afford to pay for the parachute, but I'd be more than happy to collect it and chip in a few quid for the Xmas beer tasting session. Some press publicity may even be possible, although I can't make any guarantees, aside from the fact that the group, and the kids would be very grateful.
Email me or post a reply if you can help.
Thanks.
