Story

This summer, myself Dave and our awesome kids are all doing a little something to raise funds for the veterans foundation uk.The kids wanted to be heavilly involved and have all decided to push themselves just a little out of their comfort zones ☺️

the youngest (willow 11, Drew 8 and Thomas 4) are going to be lead by Dave in a timed orientation programme. this will see them scale some uneven terrain, steep climbs and put their navigational skills, pace and team work to the test 🥰

the eldest (Isla almost 15) and myself will be braving a jaw dropping 150 foot abseil into sandford quarry! The dizzy heights, crumbling rock and the long way down will certainly put us to the test!

we are all determined to do this and have chosen the veterans foundation because its close to all of our hearts. Both the girls dad and thomass dad is from an army background, as are some of our friends and family relatives both alive and deceased.

the veterans charity cater for EVERY single hero ranging from D-Day veterans right through to afghan veterans. Their current campaign is called #PTSD100 which is a hundred years of support for ptsd. This is something close to my heart and something nobody should ever go through alone.

any donation is greatly appreciated - it doesnt matter if its a penny, a pound or ten pound! It all adds up and makes a massive difference! ❤️ Heres to training for summer - wish us luck 🥰
