My story

Corporal Lloyd Newell, Lloydy was fatally wounded whilst on operations in Helmand Province, Afghanistan on 16th June 2011. Lloydy is my darling little brother, my hero, a hero and an inspiration to so many. He is a wonderful Husband and a Father to a beautiful daughter. He loved his job, and made the ultimate sacrifice doing it. His passing has left an enormous hole in the lifes and hearts of all who know him.

As a tribute to my brother, myself and 15 friends are training to complete the Paras'10 P Coy Challenge on 9th September 2012 in Catterick. Some of us are also now doing the Colchester event too, to be held @ Merville Barracks in Colchester on Sunday 21st October (the day before my fiancee and I fly out to Cyprus to get married!). The race is 10 miles of sheer endurance, carrying 16kg in a bergen whilst wearing military boots. We are aiming to complete the course in the 1 hr 50 and raise as much money as we possibly can for 'The Parachute Regiment Charity', 'Help for Heroes' and for my darling Nieces Trust.

So please dig deep, donate and celebrate a true hero.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my Justgiving Page and helping to keep my brothers memory alive.
