Katie Price is lending her support to an incredibly brave fundraising effort led by 70-year-old Lyn Wilson for St Barnabas House hospice in Worthing. Lyn, who has been an unwavering fundraiser and volunteer for the hospice for over 30 years, is set to embark on an adrenaline-charged wing walk on June 7, 2025. During this daring stunt, she will stand on top of an aircraft high above the countryside, and—as an extra challenge—if she meets her fundraising target of £7,000 (a target she impressively achieved back in 2023), she’s pledged to perform a loop-the-loop, turning backwards and upside down on the plane. This bold move not only represents her personal determination to step completely out of her comfort zone for a cause close to her heart but also highlights the transformative impact of community support on vital local healthcare services.
In addition to the wing walk, local business and community initiatives are joining forces for this noble cause. PK Autosmart is hosting an open fun day on Saturday, May 10, from 11 am to 3 pm at the Woods Way Trading Estate. This family-friendly event promises a day full of children’s activities, a hog roast, and—adding extra star power—a special appearance from Katie Price herself. Her engagement is helping to shine a spotlight on the fundraising campaign and to inspire others to contribute, ensuring that St Barnabas House hospice can continue providing palliative care and support for adults with life-limiting illnesses and their families.
This inspiring collaboration between Lyn Wilson’s daring challenge and Katie Price’s support underscores an important message: when communities come together, even the most heart-stopping challenges can become catalysts for positive change.
