My Story

I am running the Great North Run 2023 to support ABF The Soldiers' Charity, the national charity of the British Army.

I've been a paramedic in Yorkshire since 1992, we have many ex soldiers and other services working for us, I have also been called to ex service men and women, I have vivid memories of the struggles and loneliness that they and their families feel once they are home and the reality of living with the physical and mental damage becomes their problem and help is not so readily available. It's sad to see people who once had the support of a team and a whole organisation around them suddenly seem alone. 
My son is now 4 years in with the Royal Artillery, and although I hope he never needs the help of ABF, I'd like to think people like them funded by people like me will still be there if he does.

please give if you can even a single £ can make a difference 

Thank you.
