Story

To raise much needed funds for Poppy Scotland, Leuchars Station based No 4 (S&NI) SATT, RAFAC are undertaking the initial challenge of walking, running and cycling 1921 miles, to be completed by 11 Nov 21.  Secondary and tertiary targets have also been set for when we smash the first 1921 miles!  We have split in to two teams (a bit of inter team competition), I'm leading team 2 and Dep OC is leading team 1.  Due to current restrictions we will be carrying out our efforts individually and uploading the miles covered via Strava.

If you are able to make a donation to our cause please follow the instructions on this page, every penny counts to this truly outstanding charity!
