'Paul's Marathon Challenge' for the ABF The Soldier's Charity

Media: Internal

Date: Aug 2010

 London Marathon weekend sees the Club full of runners taking on the challenge of the marathon.

This year Victory Services Club member Paul French and his two grandsons, James Rann and Tom Rann, who have been long term supporters of ABF The Solders’ Chairty, took on the 2010 Virgin London Marathon to raise fund for soldiers, former soldiers and their families in times of need.

 

This is known to be the first time that a granddad has run the London Marathon with grandsons and are pictured at the ABF Soldiers Charity reception in Wellington Barracks. They raised an incredible £2872 in fundraising but would love to reach their target of £3K. If members would like to make a donation, they can do so by calling 0845-037-7966 or send a cheque payable to ‘ABF The Soldiers’ Charity’ and send it to

Over the past two years ABF The Soldiers' Charity has seen a 30% rise in people seeking our help and expect this to increase with the continuing operations in Afghanistan. By donating to Paul’s challenge, members can help them be there for soldiers, for life.
