Story
Allan Webb Ltd is a proud supporter of the Armed Forces Covenant and, as such, is looking to support the Gloucestershire Army Cadet Force who have aspirations to reduce the financial barriers to joining the cadets.
One such barrier is footwear. Whilst uniforms are provided free of charge, it is up to Cadets to fund their own footwear which needs to be robust enough for Cadet Activities. These typically range from £50 - £150 a pair.
The aim of Gloucestershire Army Cadet Force is to:
1. Provide every young person who joins the Cadets with a pair of boots free of charge.
2. Continue to replace these boots as the young person grows, or the boots become unserviceable.
As a company, Allan Webb Ltd is aiming to raise £3,000 in total to provide much needed financial support for this worthy cause. As a collective, our team is aiming to travel as far as we can by walking, swimming, cycling or running over a 4 week period.
Given these difficult times of financial uncertainty, we don't want to see any young person missing out on opportunities to join the cadets, and reap the associated physical and social benefits, simply because they cannot afford to join in.
Thank you for any support you offer, it is greatly appreciated. To find out more about Allan Webb Ltd fundraising, check out our webpage
