We help blind veterans to discover a life beyond sight loss

Story

Once upon a time there was a Sailor, Solider, and an Airman , all Canary fans from Forces2Canaries, and they… decided to enter the Veterans Banger Rally (VBR) to raise money for Blind Veterans UK,  a charity which helps vision-impaired ex-Servicemen and women to rebuild their lives after sight loss by providing rehabilitation, training, practical advice, and emotional support to veterans regardless of how or when they lost their sight.

To complete the VBR we are self-funding the purchase of a banger for less than £1000, and driving it, with other competitors, from Dover to Gibraltar over 6 days in September 2023…we may also take a toolkit and breakdown cover!

If you could spare a little to support this fantastic charity, every penny donated will go directly to the Blind Veterans UK charity and they, and us, would be very grateful. Thank you.
