Hi

I’m Lydia and in April I’ll be taking on my biggest challenge yet. I’m running for a fantastic Charity, Forces Employment who support anyone in the military transitioning to civilian life.

I want to run the London Marathon to push myself beyond my limits and prove to myself what I’m capable of, as well as to show my 3 boys the value of determination and perseverance.

Forces Employment Charity provides life-long, life-changing support, job opportunities and training to Service leavers, reservists, veterans and their families, irrespective of circumstances, rank, length of service or reason for leaving.

Transitioning from military to civilian life can be challenging and isolating. That’s why we provide lifelong, life-changing employment support. Veterans and military families can count on us at any stage of their journey, ensuring they never feel alone when facing career obstacles.
