New Remembrance Collection

An item from the folks formerly known as There But Not There.

Hi 

Our Veterans need Your Support
On the 13th October we launched our new and exciting veterans support club.
Joining us to mark the occasion were Founding Patrons – Antiques Roadtrip regular Raj Bisram, and double Olympic champion Heather Stanning OBE – and a giant (almost 10ft!) Tommy in our Garden of Honour to mark the occasion.
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.
JOIN THE TOMMY CLUB

A Note to You from a Founding Patron…
“With such a long family history of military service, RBLI’s important work is close to my heart. The military community has always rallied around each other at times of need, and now it’s the nation’s turn to do the same.

Tommy Club, and Tommy Champions across the UK, will ensure vulnerable veterans of all ages will receive the support they need for years to come.”

Tommy Club Founding Patron
TV explorer and Reservist British Army Officer, Levison Wood

In Remembrance

“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.”

The Inspirational Work of Our Supporters
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?
