BAD weather could not stop the determined team at Okehampton's Quinns Hairdressing completing their charity skydive.

The five skydivers (pictured left) are all hairdressers at the salon and agreed to take part in a skydive to raise money for Breast Cancer Campaign.

The team had travelled to Perranporth five times to complete the challenge, but each time weather prevented them from taking part. Sarah Sheppard, Hayley Gent, Maxine Thornley and Jess Brock finally completed their skydives on Sunday, April 28, but the weather then changed and Sophie Osman was not able to do hers.

The entire team went back to Perranporth on Sunday, May 5, Sophie's 19th birthday, to watch her complete the skydive at long last.

Upon landing, Sophie received a skydiving theme birthday cake and sparkling wine.

Through the generosity of clients, friends and family the team has raised a magnificent £4,400 for the charity. Sponsorship money is still coming in, and those at the salon are now concocting their next charity fundraiser.
