The Frontline Walk 2025: The Normandy Beaches

I'm taking part in the Frontline Walk: The Normandy Beaches. I'll be trekking 100km of the coastline stormed as part of Operation Overlord during the D-Day landings of the Second World War.

I'll be doing this to in commemoration of the sacrifices made by those who fought in WWII whilst helping to support the soldiers and veterans of today who continue to struggle.

It will be a physically and emotionally tough challenge, but I'm doing it all for a great cause: the Army Benevolent Fund, the National Charity of the British Army. They support soldiers, veterans and their families when they need it most.

Please cheer me on by making a donation towards my target.

Because those who serve do so to protect our county and way of life and deserve recognition, respect, to be helped when they need it. For not everyone can do the jobs of our military, these are very special individuals.
