On any given night there will be 1,100 homeless ex-Service people in London. Of these, 60% will have been homeless for more than three years, and over half will suffer from alcohol abuse problems.

The Sir Oswald Stoll Foundation believes our Veterans deserve better than a life of homelessness; they are committed to building and sustaining communities in which ex-Service people can live positively and healthily.

I will soon be running 90km, from London to Brighton, in aid of the Foundation. This is a small charity which provides supported housing to vulnerable and disabled ex-Servicemen and women, including those who have been homeless. They provide housing, employment apprenticeships, IT training, individual rehabilitative support, and health and well-being tuition to over 200 Veterans in London. Please offer your support to the Foundation by sponsoring me.
