51 Squadron RAF Regiment 80/20 Anniversary Charity Events.
To celebrate 80 years since the formation of 51 Sqn RAF Regt and 20 years at RAF Lossiemouth we are raising money for four great charities.
The charities are:
CALM. The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) offers support and information to people when they need it, aiming to prevent suicide, which takes 18 lives every day and is the single biggest killer of men under 45 in the UK.
‘RAF Benevolent Fund’. The RAF Benevolent Fund is the RAF's leading welfare charity and have been there for all members of the RAF Family for over 100 years. Last year they assisted more than 70,000 members of the RAF Family.
MIND. The mental health charity, working across England & Wales who believe no one should face a mental health problem alone. Whether you’re stressed, depressed or in crisis they’ll listen, give support and advice, and fight your corner.
RAF Association. The RAF Association is dedicated to supporting serving and former RAF personnel and their families. Whether it's an injured airman fighting to get back onto his feet, a young daughter missing her parent away on overseas operations or a WWII veteran needing a shoulder to lean on, they are there to help.
These charities mean so much to serving personnel, veterans and their families. To know that you are not alone can mean all the difference, whether taking the next step in your military career or in civilian life. With your support these charities can continue to help those who are struggling with mental health.
How are we going to raise funds for these charities?
