Daphne Bernard set off at 6.15 pm from Headcorn airfield in Kent on June 4, 2012, just before the jubilee concert kicked off at Buckingham Palace.

The grandmother hopes her parachute jump will raise money for the Alzheimer's Society in memory of her late husband, Vic.

Daphne says her secret to fitness is playing badminton with her friends the 'Golden Oldies' while the Queen attributes her fitness to countryside walks.
