Gok’s charity of the month – July: ABF The Soldiers’ Charity

Posted on July 2nd, 2012 in Charities

Hi guys, now I know you all know I like a man in uniform…but sometimes I do have to tell you about some important things in life that aren’t just bags and boys. This month I have chosen The Soldiers Charity as my charity of the month and it’s nothing to do with their shiny boots or starched collars! These guys do the most incredible work to help the heroic soldiers of this country both past and present! Whether that is through supporting their families, or if they have suffered during service for our country, I truly believe we should support them in any way we can!
