She did it! Our Ambassador and fundraising superstar Tanya Hodges has completed her 100 mile walk/run from Northumberland to Edinburgh!

After setting off from Bamburgh Castle at 7am on Saturday 4th July, Tanya arrived at Edinburgh Castle at 1.50am on Monday 6th July. That's 100 miles, 43 hours, straight-through, no sleep, minimal rest stops – and all for our Veterans, Reservists and families.

"Do you know what's really lovely? Pretty much through this whole event I've seen so many poppies and it just reminds me of why I'm doing it, who I'm doing it for – and why it's so important to help these people. It's really given me some strength at a time when I don't feel strong at all…"

Congratulations Tanya. We are all in awe.

We'll be sharing Tanya's account of her 43 hour 'Rat Race' – so stay tuned. In the meantime, if you'd like to support this monumental effort, you can do so here:
