A DARING trio from Lydney are about to leap into unknown by taking part in a tandem skydive in aid of Brain Tumour UK.

The threesome who'll be jumping from a skydive centre in Oxfordshire are raising funds in memory of Denise Fox who died from a brain tumour last August. Aged only 48, she left a family including three girls.

Taking to the air for the first time will be Denise's neice Hollie Thomas, 19, and sisters Nicky Trim and Mandy Thomas.
