*UPDATE!!*

SSAFA have unfortunately had to cancel the Transylvania Trek I was originally taking part in HOWEVER, instead, I am now going to be completing a 50km Ultramarathon in Morrocco from the 14th-17th November. Same charity, different challenge 💪🏻 I am not able to change the event details on this page as the only alternative is to close this page and start a new one which I don't want to do, due to all the amazing donations I have already had!

SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity is a trusted source of support for the Armed Forces community in their time of need. They have been supporting the Armed Forces community for 140 years, providing assistance to regulars and reserves in the Royal Navy, the Royal Marines, the British Army and the Royal Air Force and their families, including anyone who has completed National Service.

They help support the Armed Forces community in a number of ways, though their main focus is on providing direct support to individuals in need of physical or emotional care. Many individuals that leave their service can face complex challenges such as life-changing injuries, post-traumatic stress disorder or even struggle to adapt to life outside the Forces. SSAFA is committed to helping these brave men and women overcome these problems and rebuild their lives.

You can learn more about individuals who have been helped by the charity through the following link:

As someone who is a huge advocate for mental health/wellbeing and the impact it can have on someone's life, I am passionate about helping those in need, particularly those who have fought and served for our country. Without charities like SSAFA, there would be many more individuals in need of support, through no fault of their own. I hope you can agree that this is a great cause and will join me in supporting SSAFA, no donation is too small!

I will be sure to update you all with my events along the way!

Thank you so much again for your donations and support in this challenge, it is much appreciated :)
