Raising money for

The Sportsman's Charity

Charity Registration No. SC033982

Funds raised for The Hearts and Heroes Challenge will be used to support military veterans and their families in Scotland, who are affected by a number of issues including financial, physical and psychological problems, and to provide pastoral and financial care to rugby’s seriously injured young people.

The Sportsman's Charity, which has distributed over £2m since 1983, raises money through events for projects involving disabled sport, youth and social inclusion. All its distributions are made through the Scottish Community Foundation. In addition it runs events for non charitable concerns or individuals who require management and knowledge of the processes involved.

My story

Ladies and Gents,

Thanks for taking the first step and looking at my page.

I did this 29 mile hike in 9 hours 27 mins on Saturday 16th May in the Scottish Borders. It was a challenge and I got a few blisters but it was worth it.

The charities we walked for are important to me: Poppy Scotland, Hearts and Balls and the Sportsman's charity. All of them raise money each year for people that have been either crippled by war or by rugby.

The Sportsman’s Charity in case you don’t know generates funds for The Murrayfield Centenary Fund for disabled rugby players while Hearts and Balls has the aim of “keeping rugby help its own” including seriously injured players.

I know these days every other person is doing something for charity. All I'm asking from you is £2 (obviously more would be amazing).

2 quid costs less than a pint or a sandwich from the deli. If I can get enough people to donate £2 then I might get close to my team's target.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Sportsman's Charity Limited 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Ric
