One Troop RE - Sapper Coastal Challenge

I am raising vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans.

We are a group of RE veterans who all served in the same Troop in the 80’s and 90’s, we meet up a few times a year both socially and for organised events, including Remembrance Day parade. 

Whilst many of the group are living with health problems we are all very much aware of the many veterans suffering with unseen mental health problems due to service , therefore it was decided to raise awareness and Much need funds through one of our annual events . 

So they will set off on an 8 mile (CFT distance) undulating walk along the North Yorkshire coast in the Runswick Bay /Staithes area, dropping down in to these iconic traditional fishing villages before the climbs back up to the cliffs again. It may be a short distance to some but for this group in their 60’s, 70’s and even early 80’s it’s a real challenge, but one we are up for.

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 vital steps towards ensuring veterans can get the support they need.

Thank you so much for your support.
