Over many years RBLI have helped a large number of veterans who have come to our village in Aylesford who have nowhere else to go. For various reasons our ex-service personnel have found themselves without a home or support at a time when they need it most. RBLI are dedicated to helping homeless veterans by providing them with welfare assistance and accommodation and I am really proud to be taking part in this event and fundraising to support vulnerable veterans.

I will be raising awareness of homelessness in the Armed Forces community as well as raising vital funds for RBLI enabling them to continue to support programmes like Step In, which houses veterans in crisis when they first come to the RBLI village and puts a longer term plan in place. Your donations will help those who are currently in the Step In facility and those who are yet to arrive on the RBLI Village in Aylesford. I would be so grateful to receive any donations you're able to give.
