Tinga Umera, Managing Director of Nexus Care Services, has planned his next venture to raise money for Good Hope Hospital in Sutton Coldfield.
Tinga is no stranger to taking on challenges for charity. Over the last few years, he has participated in the Wolverhampton 10K, raising more than £3,000 for Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), hiked in the Peak District in aid of Cancer Research and climbed the Wrekin in Telford for the Race Against Dementia.
His latest venture will see him take to the skies with a skydiving adventure planned for Saturday, 16 May 2026.
All funds raised will be going towards supporting the work of Good Hope Hospital Charity. The charity helps deliver the additional care and resources to patients and families that fall outside standard NHS funding.
Nexus has supported Good Hope Hospital Charity for a number of years, including the team’s most recent Christmas toy drive for children in hospital.
Tinga says, “I’ve always enjoyed challenging myself and raising money for causes close to my heart.
“Skydiving is a first for me, but if it helps support Good Hope Hospital and the incredible work they do, it’s worth the jump. I hope people will get behind it and help make a difference to the people who need this funding.”
Elle Huguet, Assistant Fundraising Manager at Good Hope Hospital, said: “We want to extend a huge thank you to Tinga for taking on this incredible challenge.
“At Good Hope Hospital Charity our mission is to support patients, their families and staff, in a range of ways. From funding state-of-the-art equipment and research to the added extras and comforts to look after our patient’s wellbeing and activities and distraction toys for children visiting the hospital. Tinga and Nexus’ fundraising is a huge help and will make a massive difference.”
