Story

To support a wonderful Veteran’s Charity & remember the fallen on the 80th anniversary of D-Day I intend to run 80 miles as part of The Not Forgotten’s “80 for 80 D-Day Campaign”.

The Not Forgotten is a military charity who have been “Restoring dignity, confidence and independence to veterans since 1920.”

Veteran’s battles don’t stop when they leave military service. For many they just begin..

The Not Forgotten provide a varied programme of social activities, outings, respite and challenge breaks for veterans and wounded serving personnel which improve physical and mental health, address isolation and loneliness, and promote a sense of community and balance. Bringing veterans together, lifting spirits, supporting partners and families and transforming lives.

To support this worthy charity & mark a pivotal moment in our history I hope to compliment The Not Forgotten’s 80 for 80 D-Day Campaign covering 80 miles between 6 May to D-Day, 6 June. Other commitments reduces this time to 22 days giving a minimum of 3.64 miles per day.

I would be MOST grateful for your support of any size or shape, thank you.
