WHY
The event is in aid of the Royal Navy & Royal Marines Children’s Fund RNRM Children’s Fund with all proceeds going directly to the charity. Formed in 1902 it is one the oldest children’s charity in the UK. They support children with mental and physical disabilities, however due to operations in Afghanistan the support to families due to bereavement has risen sharply over the last few years.
As we can all see from the news, the fatalities have been heavy and the charity is committed to looking after the bereaved children and supports them up to the age of 21. Over the course of 2010/11 we assisted 1600 children at an average cost of £798 per child. Of these:
• 49% were suffering from a disability or mental or physical illness.
• 40% were due to the consequence of parental illness or death.
• 11% due to the impact of parental relationship problems (these are increasingly due to the parents post traumatic stress)
