At Walking With The Wounded our success is down to our supporters and we are extremely grateful and humbled by the extraordinary efforts that so many make on our behalf. We really could not provide the support we do to those who served without you and your hard work. Thank you from every single one of us.
In case you were stuck for ideas, here are some to get you started!
£800 can support a veteran like Sean through our Project NOVA aimed at reducing reoffending rates and making a positive impact on some of the toughest communities in the UK.
Support someone like Harry through our Head Start mental health programme
Run your own Tug of War event or set it up within a larger community event such as a summer fete or school sports day
Create your own auction of promises fundraising event. You can as local businesses to contribute promises or auction lots for your event and then create an event around the auction such as a lunch, dinner or drinks evening.
How about organising a charity event, to raise much needed funds for WWTW, involving our four legged friends? There is a long history of dogs in warfare, going back to ancient times, but more recently dogs have been successfully trained as scouts, sentries and trackers. Their uses have been varied and some continue to be used in the military to this day.
Whether buying or selling – everyone loves a car boot sale – and if you are worried about the English weather (not always helpful when it comes to organising outdoor events), then how about organising an indoor table top sale instead?!
