A DISABLED woman from Salem recently raised more than £2,000 for charity by undertaking a glider flight.

Su Wilson, who now lives in Hampshire with her husband Bob and their 16-month-old son Max, took to the skies above Lasham to raise funds for the Myositis Support Group.

“It was an amazing, fantastic experience and I would recommend anyone to give it a go,” said Su.

“It was so quiet up there, like being a bird. I was pulled up to 2-3,000ft by an aeroplane, released and stayed up for 30 minutes in glorious sunshine.

“My total raised is £2,010, which is fantastic and will go to research into myositis and support to fellow sufferers and their families.”

Su is still raising money for the Myositis Support Group. To make a donation go to www.just giving.com/Su-Wilson.
