On the 3rd of April, two Reservists from B Company of the Royal Gibraltar Regiment will be running the Manchester marathon to raise funds and awareness for 3 separate causes; Clubhouse Gibraltar mental health support, The Taourarte Project and the Royal Gibraltar Regiment Benevolent fund.

LCpl Jack Nicholls and Pte Mounir Bouhaltit would greatly appreciate any kind donations that can be made to these 3 causes to support our efforts.

For the past 6 weeks they have been training for the marathon with a further 6 weeks to push, the more support they can get, the bigger incentive they will have, which will make these next 6 weeks easier.

Below you can read a little bit about each charity we are raising awareness and funds for:

The Clubhouse Gibraltar provides support and opportunities within a structured work ordered day. This allows people recovering from mental health difficulties to participate in their own recovery process which enhances their self-confidence and self-esteem as well as offering freedom from isolation.

The Taourarte Project is a charity dedicated to advance the education of pupils attending the village school in Taourarte - Morocco, by providing and assisting in the provision of equipment, facilities and the maintenance of the school.

The Royal Gibraltar Regiment Benevolent fund is a charity which supports the welfare of both serving and retired members of the regiment and their families.
