2015 Flying Muscle Dream Programme,

About the event

Award-winning family charity The Muscle Help Foundation is looking for a headline sponsor for its 2015 Flying Muscle Dream Programme. Following on from last year's resounding success, this small family charity will once again be partnering with TAG Farnborough Airport (Hampshire), AeroBility (the home of disabled flying, Reg Charity No. 1149629) at Blackbushe Airport, The Village Urban Resort Hotel (Farnborough) and Zibrant (Global venue finding & event management agency) who produced and sponsored last year's promotional film. In 2014, there were an unprecedented number of nominations from across the UK as a result of the charity's marketing efforts that included promoting the programme across various social media platforms as well as direct support from partners that included other UK charities.

There were some unforgettable moments as well as a few surprises along the way, not least for the chosen beneficiaries who were able to take the controls in level flight but also experience a totally exclusive insight into one of Europe’s best private business jet facilities at TAG Farnborough Airport used by celebrities, movie stars, music icons and the occasional football team.

In addition, the programme included all meals, refreshments and an overnight stay at the Village Urban Resort Hotel Farnborough together with The Muscle Help Foundation's signature Muscle Dream goody bags that rounded off the experience.

AeroBility is a user led charity run largely by disabled aviators with experienced instructors trained to work with disabled individuals using adapted aircraft, making flying accessible for all. This was The Muscle Help Foundation's first experience in collaborating closely with the team at AeroBility who work tirelessly to make flying accessible for all. The charity is now planning its 2015 Flying Muscle Dream programme.

The Muscle Help Foundation's CEO Michael McGrath said ”The aim was to take a pioneering stance by giving a highly-personalised, transformational flying experience to young people with Muscular Dystrophy by encouraging them to literally take-the-controls in level flight and in so doing, give them a powerful sense of real achievement underpinned by greater self-belief, improved confidence and personal resilience.”

“In broadening beneficiary horizons, this year’s programme had a number of specific goals – to transform a person’s outlook, to encourage a desire to experience new things in life and to establish new relationships and friendships in connecting people with a shared interest.”
