We support serving/retd R SIGNALS soldiers to keep our heroes out of hardship

Story

Setting off on the 22nd August, at least 3 Royal Signals Bikers will be riding 125cc motorbikes from The National Memorial Arboretum to Berlin and back to The National Memorial Arboretum in time for the Royal Signals Memorial Day on 2nd September 2023. Totalling over 2000 miles with all on road maintenance being done (if necessary) by ourselves.

This challenge will take in a tour of former BAOR areas of significance to The Royal Corps of Signals.

I shall also be running a total distance equivalent to a marathon during the event.

The Royal Signals Charity 284923

Helping close to 600 soldiers every year

More than a third of benevolence recipients are aged 65 or older. One case in ten is for a serving soldier. As a grant making charity the Royal Signals Charity does not do casework but does work closely with charities who do. Once a need has been established the caseworker will approach the Royal Signals Charity (and potentially other charities too) for a grant to provide funds for those Royal Signals Soldiers / dependants who are in situations of hardship, distress or need.

The Royal Signals Charity deals with approximately two new cases every working day. One benevolence request does not preclude others.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
