Charity: Walking With The Wounded
Brian Wood MC is running in aid of the charity ‘Walking With The Wounded’. Walking With The Wounded is a leading military charity which recognises those who served, whether mentally wounded, socially wounded or physically wounded, they deserve the care, support and means they and their families need to function in society, serving in the communities in which they live, reigniting their sense of purpose and making a positive contribution again.
They do four things: employment, mental health, care coordination and volunteering which are saving jobs, homes, relationships and lives for the Veterans who are struggling since leaving the military.
They have adapted and will continue to support the ex-service community during this difficult time.
Walking With The Wounded have worked in partnership with the NHS for many years and during this period they will continue those partnerships to respond wherever possible to support the incredible NHS.
