Harrison Spinks take to the sky for charity 

Three employees from Leeds bed manufacturer Harrison Spinks have raised £1400 for industry charity The Furniture Makers’ Company by completing a tandem skydive. 

Richard Essery, MD at Spinks Springs; Darren Marcangelo, commercial director at Spinks Springs; and Chris Townsley, components production manager at Harrison Spinks, took to the sky on 5th May and jumped from 15,000ft at Skydive Hibaldstow, Lincolnshire. 

Darren Marcangelo says: “Harrison Spinks recently became a corporate member of The Furniture Makers’ Company because of the shared values we have towards supporting the furnishing industry. This is a great charity doing very good work to help others and provide much needed support to people in need.” 

Hayden Davies, master of The Furniture Makers’ Company, adds: “I would like to congratulate Richard, Darren and Chris for completing their skydives and thank them for doing it in aid of us. Supporter-led fundraising events such as this are great for raising funds for the charity and creating awareness of what The Furniture Makers’ Company does amongst employees.”
