💪🎉 Challenge Complete and Goal Smashed! 🎉💪

A huge congratulations to Tiffany and Dave, who took on the Tough Mudder on 6 June in support of the Army Benevolent Fund, raising a fantastic £1,525 for soldiers, veterans and their families.

Tiffany has a strong connection to the Army family, having grown up as an Army child before going on to serve as a Reserve Soldier with the Royal Signals. Together, she and Dave tackled the demanding course and a great fundraising spirit.

Thank you both for your incredible support and commitment to the Army community. We are enormously grateful for everything you've done to help us continue supporting those who serve, or who have served, and their families. 👏👏

💙 A Truly FAB Visit 💙

Last week, ABF Scotland's John Gillie and Gordon Tibbetts visited a Friends of FAB (Families' Activity Breaks) camp in Lochgoilhead, the first FAB camp ever held in Scotland. FAB provides life-changing residential breaks for bereaved military families, helping them build confidence, resilience and lasting friendships through outdoor adventure and peer support.

From kayaking and climbing to simply spending time with others who understand their journey, the impact on families was clear to see. One parent told us,"I don't know where I'd be without FAB."

We're incredibly proud to support FAB and the amazing volunteers who help military families find hope, connection and a renewed sense of purpose after loss. 💙
