Courtney & John Tfm25

On April 30th 2025 we will be taking part of The Forces March aid of The Veterans Charity. We will be embarking on the 5-day, 135 mile WW2 training march from Ilfracombe, North Devon, back home to Bulford, Wiltshire. The 1942 march was undertaken by men who would go on to spearhead the entire D-Day liberation with the assault on Pegasus Bridge. The Veterans Charity was founded in March 2008 to help support UK Veterans of all generations. They support for Veterans facing hardship by providing necessary essentials such as food shopping, clothing, household items, utilities support and even electronics for vital communication. Despite being a small, primarily self-funded charity, they have supported 4,500 Veterans and their families. John served 25 years in the British Army beginning his career as part of RTC which disbanded into the RLC for 22 years before moving to MPGS for the remainder of his service. After completing his full-service John is also a cancer survivor and continues to work as a HGV Driver. I, Courtney want to take part in the Forces March not only to support The Veterans Charity and the work they do, but also my Dad. Having grown up in a military environment community is key and it’s how we get by, supporting one another in times of hardship. We would be ever so grateful if you could help us reach our combined target of £1,000 for this amazing charity so they can keep providing the essential help they offer to Veterans and their families. ~ John & Courtney x
