Thanks to all friends family and RBL member's, David Collins and Tony Robertson completed the 64km walk over 2 days to South of Spain HQ in Calahonda. We received a warm welcome from RBL chair Margery Taylor and members of Mijas branch at HQ. Through the generousity of all we managed to raise approx 1500 euros (including a massive 200 euros raised from HQ). Thanks to Manilva life for raising awareness of the RBL, and also Joanne Robertson who was our support vehicle.
All money raised will benefit Veterans and their families in need. Thank you all 🫡
