A BRAVE Stockton mother is one of 300 people preparing to set a new skydiving world record to raise money for cystic fibrosis.

On August 16, at RAF Weston on the Green, Oxfordshire, Fiona Marshall, 28, will jump 12,000 feet to help set a new Guinness World Record for the most tandem parachute jumps in 24-hours.

The event aims to raise more than £100,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.

Ms Marshall's seven-year-old son, Charlie, suffers from the condition.

Anyone wishing to help with sponsorship is asked to call (01642) 656187.
