Story

I am taking on the Vietnam Trek in October 2024 to raise vital funds for SSAFA.

This challenge will be epic for me since taking poorly nearly 2 years ago. I am only 8 stone 4lb so it’s going to be a long hard slog with weight.

I’m a former wren and served with commando units so I’m counting on the lads for some training trips so I can complete this yomp safely.

Failure is not an option.

SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity is a trusted source of support for serving personnel, veterans and their families in their time of need. In 2022 our trained teams of volunteers and employees helped more than 59,000 people, including veterans, serving personnel (regulars and reserves) and their families.

SSAFA understands that behind every uniform is a person. And we are here for that person and their family, any time they need us and in any way they need us.
