Sky’s the limit for daring Lisa

A daredevil Spalding woman has raised £800 for charity by taking to the skies.

Lisa Piccinelli, who has autism, epilepsy and learning difficulties, was determined to help two charities by jumping from an airplane in a tandem skydive.

Along with her mum Ann, Lisa boosted her fundraising with a recipe book they created during lockdown.

“We had been cooking on Zoom for our friends at the Chappell Centre in Spalding and we put the recipes into the book,” said Ann.

Lisa had the support of her friends when she went to the Sibson Airfield for the jump earlier this month.

The money she raised will be divided between the Chappell Centre, Pinchbeck Road, and the Lincoln Rape Crisis Centre.
