Story
My 50 50 50 50 challenge!
My name is Thomas Sutcliffe, I'm 55 years young. I was in the the Light Infantry for nearly 20 years. I was one of the lucky ones; but there are a lot of us veterans out there that need help and assistance. The Light Infantry association helps those who serve their country but are now in a situation where they now need their country to support them.
In June 2018, on the 50th Anniversary at least 50 veterans will be marching 50 miles from Hereford to Shrewsbury, the home of Light Infantry to try and raise £50,000 to help the light infantry association to continue their fantastic work; by supporting these ex - soldiers and their families through very difficult times.
I myself will be "tabbing" (walking with a heavy load) over a distance of 300 miles in 50 days. This will be completed by early June, I will be carrying... a 50lb bergen on every step of my journey.
Your support will make such a difference and any donation no matter how big or small you can make towards this cause will be very much appreciated. Each veteran has a personal target of £1000 to raise. So... if you can, please donate, and help me, to help those who kept our country safe.
Please do feel free to share my story and help raise more money.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thank you for looking after us. I was in the TA as a medic in the signals. 50 seems an apt number. I know you’ve now hit target. Cariad Sx
