The Royal Hospital Chelsea provides a fitting home to veteran soldiers, fondly known as the Chelsea Pensioners. The Hospital is a place where veterans find comradeship and receive the very highest standards of care.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Those of you who know me will know that in August I will be marrying my best friend of 5 years - Ollie Card. Despite organising the volunteers who run for the Chelsea Pensioners' Appeal over the last few years it had never seemed like a particularly good idea for me to do the 10k. However, in the run up to the wedding I thought it would help with the motivation for getting in to 'wedding/honeymoon shape'. That is, as long as I don't break anything... which would definitely make for some interesting wedding photographs!!</p> <p>I would really appreciate any support that you can give - and, for those of you coming to the wedding - you will even get the opportunity to meet some of the Chelsea Pensioners that you are helping with your donations in their home.</p> <p>If you would like to find out more about the Royal Hospital Chelsea and our work, have a look at the website&nbsp;<a href="http://www.chelsea-pensioners.co.uk/">http://www.chelsea-pensioners.co.uk/</a></p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
