Make content about: Blessing completed a skydive
Blessing worked through cancer treatment far from home. Then she jumped out of an airplane.
This story
After moving from Nigeria to the UK in 2023, Blessing was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2025. Her visa did not entitle her to financial support, so she continued working as a carer through chemotherapy, surgery and radiotherapy. While still receiving treatment, she completed a skydive to raise funds and awareness.
