DEDICATED workers at a Trowbridge care home are proving how much they love their jobs by skydiving 12,000ft out of a plane.

A trio of women from Shaftesbury Court care home, in Manor Close, will don parachutes on Easter Day to kick-off a £5,000 charity drive to create a sensory garden for residents.

Tina Brack, 31, Claire Burkin, 29 and Karen Seviour, 34, have been raising funds and sponsorship since Christmas.

They will tandem jump out of a plane in Dunkeswell, Exeter, on April 11.

Local companies have already pledged support, including Avon Printing in Melksham, Fork Truck Services in Frome and Chippenham-based Royale Snooker Club.

Shaftesbury Court is home to 18 residents with physical disabilities.
