The 2011 race will be held on 11th December. Please note a change of start time and venue - the race will start at 11am from the Horticultural Research Centre, East Malling. Further details will be available later in the year.
This year we are supporting Commando 999.
Commando 999 is dedicated to former Royal Marines Commando's who currently serve (or have served) with any of the UK emergency services.
Together our mission is to raise funds for the Royal Marines Association (RMA) and the Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund (RMCTF) who look after the entire Corps family from cradle to grave. The fund is now reduced hugely depleted due to the much higher than average spending in support of the last two operational tours of Afghanistan (Iraq prior to that), with further operational tours looming now and next year. The RM Charitable Trust Fund provides and maintains the efficiency and esprit de corps of the Royal Marines.
The Fund provides morale boosting activities in order to increase the likelihood of survival in theatre for the Royal Marines and to sustain a quality family life. Inevitably much is used in support of the many bereaved families and over 150 physically wounded Royal Marines. We also know that the future holds many hundreds who will also suffer mentally.
Our challenge is to raise as much money as possible for the RMA and in doing so, allow them to provide whatever support is necessary for the less fortunate members of the Corps family who need their help.
