Thank you for taking the time to visit myself and Stuart Houghton's JustGiving page. 

As most of you may know, we are both RAF technicians based at Benson in Oxfordshire, where we work on the fleet of Merlin helicopters. Whilst in Afghanistan late last year we thought of a challenge where we would aim to travel to all remaining RAF flying stations in the UK within 7days. We decided to do this unsupported on our own 125cc motorcycles.

We now each have 125cc motorcycles; these are a Honda CG125 (Stu Houghton) and a Lifan LF125 (Stuart Robertson). We will be starting at RAF Benson in what is going to be a 1850 mile round trip taking us all over the UK, to the north west of Wales, all the way up to the north coast of Scotland before arriving back at Benson avoiding all motorways.

The reason we have set up this page so far in advance is due to both Stuart Houghton and myself being deployed to Afghan again in April. Also as we will be relying on friends and family to help us achieve our target we need to spread the word to as many people as possible, giving us a greater chance of reaching our target. 

We will be undertaking this challenge to raise vital funds for the RAF Benevolent Fund (RAFBF). Both myself and Stuart Houghton believe the work the RAFBF have been doing for RAF personnel and families, both past and present since 1919 is nothing short of amazing.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please spread the word to friends and family so raise as much money as possible to help the RAFBF.

 

Thank you
