Story
I am a PMRAFNS (RAF nurse) retired who was honoured to serve for 22 years .. we all see and appreciate the fantastic work the British Legion does importantly not only in November but all year round, this needs our help..
I hope to complete the Great North Run on 8th September 19 to support this amazing charity. I have dusted my trainers off and started my training, admittedly still early days!😊May I ask you to help me along the way with my training by donating anything you can for this great cause..PLEASE
