Story

Race The World, a virtual challenge happening for the whole of 2025, will see the teams cover a total of 76,197km (by land, sea and air) covering all 7 continents.

Collectively, the teams aim is to raise a total of £25,000 for the ABF through a combination of arduous activities and fundraising efforts.

You can track their progress and upcoming events through their team pages.

Since its formation in 1944, the charity has kept its promise to provide vital support to soldiers, former soldiers and their families in times of need. Receiving no government funding, the charity relies solely on the generosity of its supporters.

By supporting our efforts and donating to the ABF, you can make a real difference to the lives of others. Together, we can ensure that soldiers past and present receive the support they deserve.
