Story
This ride is to raise funds for our wonderful veterans…
….it is inspired from my memory of so many nightly RAF repatriation flights ✈️ for the seriously injured to BHX, whilst based there.
Whilst chatting to the crews helping, supporting and sustaining the lives of U.K. Forces 🇬🇧, it became apparent how vital their work was and how much support would be needed in the future.
Thats where the Legion 🌺 comes in!
They do an amazing job to support our Guys & Girls on the long road to recovery.
Please support this worthy cause, if you have the means.
Thank you truly 🙏 Neil
So here my plan, please read on…..
🌺🌺🌺
This isn’t just a bike ride. It’s a journey through history, remembrance, and resilience.
Over two days, I’ll be cycling from RBLI’s village in Aylesford, Kent to the poignant battlefields of Ypres, Belgium, the final resting place of thousands who gave everything for our freedom. We’ll finis at the Menin Gate, and attend The Last Post ceremony.
And I'm doing it in support of Royal British Legion Industries, a charity that provides homes, jobs, and vital support to veterans and their families, many of whom are living with life-changing injuries, PTSD, & the long-term effects of service.
RBLI’s work is life-changing. Their veterans village in Aylesford is a place of dignity, purpose and community. Whether it's supporting someone into meaningful employment after years of struggle, or providing a safe home to a veteran who’s been homeless, every pound raised helps a hero rebuild their life.
Whether it’s £1 or £100, your donation will go directly to helping those who’ve given so much.
You are all rockstars!
