A YARCOMBE woman said she had a fantastic experience when she took part in a tandem parachute jump for Hospiscare.
Debbie Luck, 49, was one of a party of six who took part in the jump, from Dunkeswell airfield, on Friday, December 4.
Mrs Luck said: "It was absolutely fantastic and I would recommend it to anybody. I was quite nervous as we went up but it was amazing.
"The free-fall was all through the cloud, but as we emerged, we were at the right height to open the parachute. So we got to see quite a lot of the area."

Along with Mrs Luck, her fellow jumpers were her husband, Ian, 40, daughter Emily Wilson, 26, Tara Flannery, 26, Hannah Twine, 22 and Laura Summers, 22.
