Upcoming and past Events
Thomas’s mama is doing the wing walk.
We will try again. The original date of the Wing Walk was September 27th. Unfortunately, the weather prevented the Wing Walk from happening. The new date has now been set as the 31st of October.
Message from Thomas´s mama:
On October 31st 2024 (weather permitting) I will be doing a wing walk to raise funds for the Thomas Dennett Memorial Trust which is a charity set up in my grandson’s name to ‘help others at times when they need it most’ .
We lost Thomas suddenly on 21st December 2022. This is my small, humble tribute to a wonderfully fine, kind young man who was so very special and is loved and missed by many of us every day.
I can picture his wry smile and bemused expression were he to know that Mama is to be strapped on to the wing of a biplane!
‘There are some who bring light into the world so great that even after they have gone their light remains’.
Thank you for your support.
