Story

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

We have decided to run in the Parachute Regiments 'P' Company Selection 10 mile endurance course in September, and raise money for a cause that James would be fiercely proud of. We would be grateful of any donations that you feel you can make to this worthwhile cause.

Many of you will know first hand how many of the British Forces are getting injured - some severely in the conflicts in the middle east. Most of you will have seen the news about Paras and other soldiers like James who have been killed whilst on tour.
The Airborne Forces Charity gives to:
- Serving members of the Parachute Regiment and their families
- Members of the Parachute Regimental Association
- Qualified parachutists serving in armed forces units with an airborne role
- Retired members of the Airborne Forces
- Youth organisations that would benefit from the ‘Airborne Spirit’ ethos

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us for running the Paras 10 mile endurance course. The Airborne Forces Charities gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Thank you for your support.

Keith and Graham Bateman
