Hi everyone,

Last year I took part in the 'Falklands Challenge' which involved doing a fundraising walk in South Devon to raise money for The Veterans Charity. With the help of many people I managed to raise over £430.



This year I've set myself a target of £500.

A big thank you to John @Train Waiting for his generous donation.

I'm still quite a way off my £500 target, so I'll give it another plug.

Any amount you can donate, however small, goes a long way to help armed forces veterans with immediate needs assistance. This can range from fuel cards to get them to a job interview, food parcels to help them through, etc..

Please, if you can, help.

44 years ago the battle to retake the Falkland Islands was in full swing. HMS Sheffield, HMS Ardent, HMS Antelope, HMS Coventry had been sunk, the Atlantic Conveyor had been hit by two Exocet missiles and 77 British military personnel were dead with numerous casualties.

Since then, many British service personnel have lost their lives, & countless more have suffered, and are suffering hardships due to PTSD & injuries suffered in service.

Any donation you can make, however small, goes a long way. I'm still quite a way from my £500 target that I've set myself.
