Kildare is invited to skydive for a youth suicide charity

KILDARE County Council and Youth Suicide Prevention Ireland have teamed up to offer Kildare people a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to skydive, and the best part about it is, its for charity.

The applications are open now for the County Kildare Skydive For Life 2025, an exclusive fundraising event inviting locals to skydive in support of youth mental health and suicide prevention programmes across the county.

The event, which takes place at the Irish Parachute Club in Clonbullogue, Offaly, is scheduled for Saturday, August 2, 2025, though participants may also choose an alternative weekend, subject to availability.

With no registration fee, participants are asked to raise a minimum of €600, which covers the full cost of their tandem skydive and directly supports YSPI’s work in local schools and crisis counselling services for young people.

Applications are now open, and spaces are expected to fill quickly. Those interested can register or find out more here.
