💙 Over £7,000 raised in memory of Paul Leather
Yesterday, we made the trip down to Surrey to catch up with Team North to congratulate them on completing their incredible 25-mile Jurassic Coast Hike.
The team took on the challenging route from Ringstead to Swanage and, despite finding the hike incredibly tough at times, pushed through together and completed it in memory of their much-loved friend and colleague, Paul Leather.
Paul sadly passed away last year while taking part in the NC500 cycling event. Supporting Veterans into Logistics was a cause close to Paul, through his friendship with someone he served alongside who went on to found our charity.
The team have now raised an amazing £7,000+ for Veterans into Logistics, helping us continue to support ex-service personnel with training, qualifications and opportunities to build stable and rewarding careers after leaving the Armed Forces.
This isn't the first time Team North have gone above and beyond for us either, having previously taken on the Welsh 3 Peaks in aid of VIL two years ago.
A massive thank you and congratulations to everyone who took part, donated and supported the challenge. We're incredibly grateful for your continued support and proud that this challenge was completed in Paul's memory. 💙
In memory of Paul Leather.
