  • Help Support our Para Athletes at the 2026 British Indoor Nationals 💙

    British Indoor Skydiving Para Athletes

    We’re delighted that Para athletes will once again be joining us at the British Indoor Skydiving Nationals at Weembi, 5–7 November 2026.

    In previous years, costs associated with the Para competition have been supported through funding from the French Parachute Federation. Unfortunately, this funding is no longer available for 2026.

    To help our Para athletes compete at this year’s Nationals, one of BISA’s Technical Advisors has independently established a GoFundMe campaign to raise financial support for the participating athletes.

    BISA is pleased to share the initiative with the wider indoor skydiving community.

    Want to help?

    Donations of any size can make a difference — and simply sharing the campaign will help it reach more people.

    The indoor skydiving community has always been at its best when it gets behind its athletes. We’d love to see that support in action again this year. 💙🇬🇧

    Please note: This is an independently organised fundraiser supporting the participating Para athletes. Funds raised through the campaign are not collected, held or administered by BISA.
