I completed the Blackpool Half Marathon today, supporting the Mayor of Kirklees Charity Appeal (The Yorkshire Regiment Benevolent Trust).
In just over 3 years The Yorkshire Regiment has disbursed £300,000 in benevolence.
Over 1000 separate grants have been made to those soldiers and their families of the regiment, and all its antecedent regiments, who have found themselves in difficulty or need.
This assistance through The Yorkshire Regiment Benevolent Trust is increasing year on year both in the number of cases it deals with and the amount of money it spends on grants.
I finish with the Greater Manchester Marathon on the 28th of April.
