Hide AdTo do that, she is going to thrown herself out of an plane at 15,000ft as part of a tandem skydive on June 17.
The money she raises will go to Mind MAP who offer free or low cost counselling to people in Market Harborough - described as 'a much needed service in our town' by Chelsea.
She added: "I decided to do the skydive after losing a close friend due to mental health and she had helped me in the past with my personal struggles.
"So I understand how hard it is to get NHS mental health services due to the long waiting times.
