TWO members of staff from the Forbes Group in Leominster are taking to the sky in support of the medical teams that have helped their relatives.

Rebecca Ryder from the sales office is skydiving in support of Birmingham Children’s Hospital. Her son has been treated in the children’s hospital, undergoing open heart surgery in June 2011 when he was just a week old.

He also underwent a second operation in January 2012 and has since had multiple keyhole surgery procedures.

Laura Castle, operations director at Forbes Group, is fundraising for Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham. Laura has had first-hand experience of the renal team at Queen Elizabeth, who have played a pivotal role in her family's life over the past five years.

Both the sky dives will take place on May 26. To sponsor Laura go to www.justgiving.com/fundraising/laura-castle2 and to sponsor Becky go to www.justgiving.com/fundraising/rebecca-ryder2
