Story

The Falklands Forty Challenge has been designed to mark the 40th anniversary of the end of the Falklands War, while allowing all supporters, no matter their ability, to take part.

During the month of May, choose to walk, run, swim, skate or cycle alone or as part of a team as long as you cover 40 miles the rest if yours to choose! And don't forget that the money you raise will go directly towards changing the lives of the most vulnerable veterans.

If you fancy really pushing your limits, why not set yourself a target to see how quickly you can go 40 miles or how many different ways you can cover the distance! The challenge is up to you.

This is an opportunity for you, your friends, family and colleagues to challenge yourselves and help RBLI support the UK's most vulnerable veterans. Every penny raised can provide safe, warm housing, while ensuring everyone has a fair opportunity to gain employment, regardless of health conditions or disability, and help veterans access the help they need to regain independence. The more money raised, the more people we can support. It really is that simple.
