Raising money for ABF The Soldiers' Charity

Charity Registration No. 1146420

We are ABF The Soldiers' Charity. We give lifetime support to serving and retired soldiers and their families. They risk so much for us, but for them, it's "just doing their job". In return, we give them down-to-earth help and friendship, with no hassle or bureaucracy. That's what we've been here to offer for 66 years.

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

I shall be running a half marathon in aid of the Army Benevolent Fund in the Bulford/Tidworth area (Wiltshire) on Fri 1st August 08. It's not something I've volunteered for, it's an Army thing and I've been told to do it - you know how it is...

However, it is a good idea and a very worthwhile cause which supports soldiers and ex-soldiers who have fallen on hard times. They vary from people who suffer the results of horrific injuries fighting wars on behalf a the governmenet WE have voted for, to people who have been unable to get a job after a lifetime of soldiering. It's not an easily transferable skill!

I know there must be a lot of charity fatigue, especially in the summer when many people are out running for various causes. I am not asking you to dig deep - please just sponsor me an amount you won't miss, even if it's just the cost of a pint. I'd rather they didn't list how much people have sponsored because it can be quite offputting to potential sponsors. I'm sure you know what I mean.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Army Benevolent Fund will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
