Chorley 60-year-old daredevil: From milking a cow and dressing as Chorley FC's Victor Magpie to jumping 11,000 ft out of a plane in aid of Derian House

Margaret said: “I wanted to mark my 60th birthday by tackling 60 challenges, and I can tell you it hasn’t always been easy!“The skydive was amazing! I was so nervous and it was a bit of a shock when I first jumped out of the plane, but it was so incredible and I’m still buzzing about it.

“The skydive is something I’ve always to do, so I decided to do it to raise money for Derian House. It’s a charity local to me and I know a lot about the amazing work that it does supporting families.“I booked the dive in January and funded it all myself, including the cameraman, so everything I raise will go to the families at Derian House.

“Derian is a great charity – I even spent some time volunteering in their Chorley charity shop in May and June this year. “Plus, we never miss the Jingle All The Way Santa walk up Rivington. We’ve been doing it for five years now - last year was bigger than ever, and it was a scorching day! “I loved the skydive and I’m glad that I could use one of my 60 challenges to do something for such a deserving charity. I hope that I can raise as much as possible!”
