The Greenfingers Wing Walk is back in 2025 – are you brave enough to join?

 

To date, 18 brave individuals have taken to the skies above the Cotswold countryside, strapped to the top of a biplane, all in support of the Greenfingers Charity. Now, with 28th August 2025 set for the next Greenfingers Wing Walk, the charity is calling on the industry not to miss out on the chance to join the Greenfingers Hall of Fame!

 

The 2025 Wing Walk will once again take place at the home of the renowned AeroSuperBatics at RAF Rendcomb Airfield. The expert team there have guided all Greenfingers wingwalkers through their exhilarating experience, helping them conquer nerves with words of encouragement and plenty of laughter. And it’s much needed, given the nature of the challenge - being strapped to the top wing of a historic biplane before soaring into the sky at speeds of up to 140mph, performing daring flypasts, zoom climbs, steep dives, and banks, all while friends and family cheer from below.

 

Already signed up is Greenfingers’ very own Fundraising Administrator, Bev Clarke, who will be marking a milestone birthday in a truly unforgettable way! Rather than opting for a quiet celebration with slippers and a cup of tea, Bev is embracing the thrill of adventure. Joining her is Becky Rose of JBM Sales Ltd, returning to take on the infamous loop-the-loop.

 

With a maximum of 10 spaces available, there is plenty of opportunity for people to push themselves outside of their comfort zone to raise vital funds for the charity.

 

To register your interest, please contact Linda Petrons, Greenfingers Director of Fundraising & Communications by emailing linda@greenfingerscharity.org.uk.
