Mental Health is a big issue, particularly within the veteran community. By donating to our event you will be assisting both The Fusilier Aid Society and Anxious Minds charities. These charities support serving soldiers and veterans that are struggling.
The event will start on 24th September 2021 and will comprise of six soldiers from A Coy Fifth Fusiliers running from the First Fusiliers Headquarters in Tidworth, Wiltshire, to the Fifth Fusiliers Headquarters in Newcastle Upon-Tyne. A total distance of 300 miles covered, in 72 hours. Each pair of runners will cover approx. 33 miles a day, for 3 days.
As the event unfolds, please look out for updates on the Fusiliers Facebook page, as we plan to conduct live feeds of the event, as well as interactive meetings, where you can speak to the runners, during the event.
