Friends Round London 2024 in support of ‘UK Homes for Heroes’.

There’s such an amazing amount of work and effort that goes into this charity all year round by Michelle and Jimmy. We try to do our bit to support and help in any way we can along with many others who do their bit. Not to mention all the efforts that Lee puts in each year in organising this event.

One of which, is the annual run round the M25 in the middle of the night with tops down, no matter what the weather. Not the turnout seen in previous years, it was still great to see so many coming out and meeting up at Colney Park. Unfortunately, the weather proved just too much and a very hard decision was made to cancel the actual run. It would have been dangerous to send so many cars out on mass in those conditions. A very tough call considering the basis of the run!!

Nonetheless, the support and dedication was proved to be there from those who came along and stayed for a chat and a catch-up in the appalling conditions that our ex-servicemen and women have to endure throughout the year, on a daily basis out on the streets.

I don’t know at the moment what the final figure is, but someone mentioned just over £100,000 has been raised so far since the inception of the event. A valiant effort. – https://ift.tt/T0sieAz
