RACE2RECOVERY FUNDRAISING IN SUPPORT OF TEDWORTH HOUSE – A HELP FOR HEROES PROJECT.

Having seen at first hand the incredible work done by the service charities the team have chosen to support the Help for Heroes Tedworth House Project, a ground breaking and inspirational concept that will revolutionise the Defence Recovery Pathway for wounded military personnel now and for the rest of their lives. 

Based in Wiltshire, Tedworth is already partly operational as a Personnel Recovery Centre operating hand-in-hand with the MoD, the Royal British Legion and many other service charities to provide a comprehensive pathway to establish the wounded, injured and sick back into the next phase of their lives. 

Here they can benefit from learning new skills, getting qualifications, career advice and work experience. They can make use of a state of the art gym, living areas and most importantly they can access the ground breaking concept of a “One Stop Welfare Shop”. For the first time those recovering from their injuries, be they mental or physical, Navy, Army or RAF, can access specialist agencies, charities and local social services where a joint solution can be tailored to the individual and their family. 

The injured team members feel that this will really change the way that they move on with their lives. Tedworth House has finally given them the best access to the incredible charities that support them throughout their recovery and for the rest of their lives.
