The Mullion Co-op team took the plunge and jumped out of a plane on World Mental Health Day to raise funds for Mind, one of the Co-op's national charity partners.

The team joined people around the UK putting on special events to raise funds and awareness for World Mental Health Day on 10 October.

Kelly Hindmarsh, Will Callaghan, and Michelle Cook made their way to Dunkeswell Airfield Honiton to complete their skydives, raising over £2,000 for Mind. The money will go to Cornwall Mind, which provides recovery focused services and activities throughout the county.

Kelly Hindmarsh said it was "the most exhilarating experience" of her life as the team dived 15,000 feet, freefalling for 60 seconds.

She said:

"Thank you so much for your generosity that pushed our amazing fundraising efforts into the £2,000 mark.

"Such an amazing experience that I shared with two colleagues and friends, the support, generosity and kind words have been amazing and overwhelmed is an understatement.

"Thank you to everyone who has donated to such a worthwhile cause. We are genuinely speechless."

Store Manager Michael Trevaskis said it was a "fantastic achievement" by the team, "our thanks to everyone who has donated and sponsored them," he added.
