On the 13th October we launched our new and exciting veterans support club.

For just £15 a year you can join the Tommy Club and become a Tommy Club Champion. You will be helping to change lives with every penny you raise as a Tommy Club Champion, including your annual subscription, directly supporting veterans with their practical and emotional needs.

In return you will receive exclusive Tommy Club benefits, including your welcome pack with collectable Tommy pin, bi-annual magazine and discounts in the RBLI shop.

“This year marks 10 years since our friend, Smudge, was killed in Afghanistan during my husband’s first tour.

“Usually on Remembrance Sunday I stand with pride and tears in my eyes as I watch my husband on parade, dressed in his smart uniform. Every year I have a lump in my throat as I watch him march up to the memorial, lay a cross for Smudge and salute.

“This year I may not be able to watch my husband lay his cross, but we will stand Tommy in our window proudly for everyone to see. This is for Smudge.

“In honour of Sapper Mark ‘Smudge’ Smith. Killed in action. 26th July 2010. Aged 26.”

We are so grateful for our supporters showing the true Tommy spirit. This morning we received this wonderful picture from Emma, showing her little Tommy saluting the big Tommy!

Little Tommy is proving to be quite the supporter, acting as Chief Fundraising Mascot while Emma takes on our Special Forces Tommy 10k challenge!
Emma’s already managed to raise £150!

Wouldn’t you like to be part of such an amazing, supporting Tommy Club community?
