The BFBS Big Salute annual fundraising campaign makes a BIG difference to the lives of serving personnel and veterans. The BFBS Big Salute is run by the British Forces Broadcasting Service which informs, entertains, connects and champions the armed forces wherever they serve.

Story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page and for all your donations.

Well we did it and we survived if a little sweaty and sore!  Our seasoned runner Galia Beech finished in a rather impressive 1hr 55min (nearly as good as when she was 18!).  Rebecca Fleckney, our lunchtime jogger powered home in 2hrs 17mins, followed by our 10k veteran but half marathon virgin Emma Davies in a superb 2hrs 33mins.  Bringing up the rear Sara Axford who until a month before had only run for the bus or last orders finished in 2hrs 44mins (before heading straight to the pub!).

Our Big Run was for the BFBS Big Salute, raising money for 5 forces charities.  BLESMA, Combat Stress, Veteran's Aid, St Dunstan's and Headley Court. 

In addition to this page we also had a separate sponsorship form and this brings our total to over £1200 - fantastic!

We are still accepting donations so if you  haven't already please dig deep and lend us your support for a really worthy cause...
