Taxi Charity For Military Veterans
75 for 75
In the Taxi Charity's 75th anniversary year, we are asking for support with our campaign to raise £75,000 to help fund our work with veterans.
Story
2023 will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Taxi Charity for Military Veterans, a remarkable milestone for a small, niche charity peopled by enthusiastic volunteers.
Founded by three London cab drivers in 1948 whilst sitting in the Bedford Arms in Fulham, no one could have foreseen that it would develop into such a key part of many veterans' and cab drivers' lives.
It would have been beyond anyone's imaginings that drivers would be taking veterans abroad to the Netherlands, France, Belgium and even Germany for acts of commemoration, and the instigators would have been proud to know how highly valued the charity has become, not only by the veterans, but by other larger charities such as the Royal Naval and Royal Marines Charity, The Soldiers' Charity, (formerly the Army Benevolent Fund), the RAF Benevolent Fund, Blind Veterans UK and many many more.
Our charity relies heavily on donations and we plan to mark our special anniversary with events for veterans of all ages throughout 2023.
Please help us to raise £75,000 in our 75th anniversary year.
