Teddington’s “Daredevil Vicar,” David Cloake, is to parachute 12,000ft out of a plane next week.

The 52-year old’s aiming to raise £12,000 to help upgrade facilities at St Mary with St Alban Church in Ferry Road for future generations.

Father David has only been vicar in Teddington for 15 months and admits the prospect of his jump next Friday is a little scary.
