Ernest Brooks business member of thebestof Carmarthenshire at the age of 64 jumped out of an aeroplane at 13,000 feet all in the aid of charity!
A dare devil at heart, Ernest enjoys the odd adrenalin rush but has never before jumped out of an aeroplane!!
The parachute jump was bought for Ernest by his wife Christine providing he did it for charity. They decided on Ysgol Bro Banw’s Special Needs Unit and head teacher Gaynor Jones gave Ernest a wish list which included iPads and iPods.
So far they have raised over £1000 but it can always be added to even belatedly.
So if you would like to recognise Ernest’s fantastically brave feat then do drop into his Jewellers in Ammanford or give them a call on 01269 579 035 and ask how you can donate.
