Story

We are raising funds for Scotty's Little Soldiers, the charity dedicated to supporting bereaved military children and young people.

Having served in the Armed forces myself I am very passionate about supporting Scotty's and the amazing impact they have, and I am proud and flattered that some of my colleagues have chosen to join me with this challenge.

Scotty's are currently supporting over 650 bereaved military children around the UK, and I want to help them achieve their goal of supporting 1000+ annually by 2030.

Their parents served our country and regardless of their cause of death, we owe it to these service men and women to look out for their children. The impact on these young people is profound and without adequate support, challenges faced as a consequence of their parent's death can spiral out of control.

By us raising just £1000 it will allow one family supported by Scotty's to enjoy a Scotty's break together! And make some amazing happy memories.

Please find out more about Scotty's and how they help by heading over to their website. https://www.scottyslittlesoldiers.co.uk/about-us

If you can donate it will be much appreciated and please tick the Gift Aid box as this means Scotty’s benefits even more from your kind donation.

If you are unable to donate we understand but please take the Scotty's pledge to show your support, it costs nothing but your time. https://www.scottyslittlesoldiers.co.uk/scottyspledge

Thank you so much for your support.
