Hardwicke & District Branch RBL raised £807.00 during
the duration of the actual truck pull. The route took us
along the A38 from Gloucester Cross to our Branch Headquarters
at Green Lane, Hardwicke, Gloucester. A distance of over 5
miles.

Cash was collected by our Support Team who shook
buckets on route and looked after our team of athletes by giving
water etc. Despite causing traffic chaos on the busiest road out of
Gloucester, the public of our City responded with enthusiasm and
not one complaint was heard, on what was the hottest day of
the year.
With the total £807.00 raised "on the road" and individual
sponsorship the Branch raised a total of over £2000.00 towards
our Poppy Appeal.
A Big THANK YOU to the people of Hardwicke and
Gloucester who supported us on Armed Forces Day and also to all of
the people of all ages involved in this event.
