Story


Since 1839, The Royal Artillery Charitable Fund has been providing vital support to members of the Gunner Family both past and present, as well as their dependants.  Over the last 15 years, the charity has assisted over 33,000 members of the Gunner Family, providing anything from bereavement counselling to mobility assistance with the help of generous donations.

Members of Reynolds Troop, 93 (Le Cateau) Battery, 5th Regiment Royal Artillery, are commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Battery's return from Kowloon, Hong Kong to Barnard Castle, North Yorkshire in February 1971.

93 Battery will be covering the 6000 mile journey between Kowloon and Barnard Castle in aid of the Royal Artillery Charitable Fund, a fantastic organisation which supports our veteran gunners and their families.

Please give generously and track the Battery's progress as they run, cycle and swim back to North Yorkshire from Hong Kong!
