Story

This April, we are asking you to take on the challenge of completing 1,940 burpees to raise money for SUPPORT OUR PARAS.

On 22nd June 1940 Winston Churchill sent a letter to General Ismay requesting a corps of at least 5,000 troops, and by 21 July 1940, men were making their first descents after parachute training.

Sign up is free and every entrant who raises £100 or more will receive a limited edition medal. Simply sign up by clicking on the 'start fundraising' button on this page!
