Anthony Lewis Swift

I’m Joe Swift, Son of Anthony Lewis Swift. I’m raising money for Walking with the Wounded, helping rehabilitate ex-service people after their careers in the armed forces.

I will be walking from Burton Albion FC, in the town where my dad was born, to Wigan Athletic FC, in the town where I was born. I’ll do this over two days and at the end I’ll hopefully catch the football game between both teams.

I am also raising awareness amongst the population that mental health is the 8th day of our week and we should take time to acknowledge its importance in our everyday lives. If you could kindly take an 8th of what you might spend on a dominos and coke this evening and donate towards a charity like Walking with the wounded, I think the world can become a better place.

Big love, peace in the Middle East.

Do you want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money in aid of Walking With The Wounded and every donation will help. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

More information about Walking With The Wounded: Walking With The Wounded offers assistance through its programmes to those vulnerable veterans who have been physically, mentally or socially disadvantaged by their service and assist them in gaining independence through new long term careers outside of the military. This includes providing support to homeless veterans and veterans in the Criminal Justice System, areas which are too often ignored. The outcome? Sustainable employment, and independence for them and their families.
