|June 12, 2025
Duo will be raising vital funds for Elsie's Story
TWO Southport headteachers have appeared on the BBC Breakfast red couch to talk about their daring skydive this summer.
Jennifer Sephton and Adrian Antell, headteachers of Farnborough Road Infants and Farnborough Road Juniors Schools respectively in Birkdale, are getting ready to jump 15,000ft out of a plane to raise vital funds for Elsie’s Story Charitable Trust, which has been set up in memory of Elsie Dot Stancombe.
The intrepid pair will take on the terrifying challenge at the Black Knights Skydive Centre in Lancaster on Saturday, June 21.
Elsie’s Story said: “These two incredible headteachers have been the most amazing support, not just for the school, but for us as a family.
“They gave up their entire summer last year to stand by our side, helping us and the children in our community through the hardest time, and they continue to do so.
