Story

I am a serving Irish Guardsman of 21 years, currently working as the Regimental Quartermaster Sergeant (Technical) for London Central Garrison. For the past 4 years I have wanted to run the London Marathon, but due to an injury and COVID my entry was deferred or the event cancelled. Finally, this year I'm will be running in aid of the Irish Guards Benevolent Fund.

The Irish Guards Benevolent Fund have been fundraising for many years and have had massive support from across the entire community especially from both sides of the Irish border. With the drawdown from active operations there is a perception that will see a similar reduction in the level of financial support towards military charities. For many the physical war might be over but the mental war will have to be fought for a long time yet. 

Any funds raised is greatly appreciated and used to support those in need.
