March in March Date Change!

TWO OLD BLOKES: Please Support our March in March!

This year we (me, Dave, and my old mate Nigel) will be taking on March in March to raise vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans.

On the 29th March we will be walking 25 miles of the North Norfolk costal path from Cromer Pier to the lifeboat station in Wells-next-the-Sea. With a combined age of 140 years between us - this will be a challenge!

Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict.

I’m taking on March in March to help take vital steps towards ensuring veterans can get the support they need. When I left the army in the 1980's, PTSD was not really recognised in the UK as a 'thing', therefore there was no treatment. Like myself many ended up as total basket cases, or even worse, like 3 of my mates who unfortunately took their own lives. I don't want todays 'modern veterans' to end up the same.

Thank you so much for your support and together we march!
