Raising money for veterans, service personnel, and their families.
At HORSTAD, we believe in supporting the people who support others. That’s why our team is taking on a 530-mile walking challenge, the distance from a local hero’s overseas grave to their hometown, to raise money for Help for Heroes. A charity providing lifelong support to veterans and service personnel across the UK.
Every donation helps provide physical, mental health, and welfare support to those who have served.
About The Challenge
Throughout July, August and September, the HORSTAD team will be collectively walking 530 miles to raise money for Help for Heroes. Covering the distance from a local hero’s overseas grave to his hometown.
Whether it’s lunchtime walks, evening hikes, treadmill miles, or weekend treks, every mile completed helps raise awareness and funds for an incredible cause.
We’ll be sharing updates, milestones, photos, and videos throughout the challenge across our social channels.
