The Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund (RMCFT) is a charity that has been set up in aid to raise money and funding for serving and retired Royal Marines and their dependants. The charity is governed by serving and retired Royal Marines who ensure that all kind donations and contributions are used in the most beneficial way to help the Royal Marines family.
The RMFCT have set a challenge of raising £6,000,000 by 2014 to denote the 350th anniversary of the Royal Marines.
In recent years, many Royal Marines have been unfortunate to be involved in both tragic and life debilitating incidents. The RMCFT strive to ensure the best possible care is given to those brave soldiers and their families.
On 1st August, the Royal Marines Reserves (RMR Merseyside) are putting a team together to take part in a 1000 sit-up & press-up challenge. They are in the process of raising money for the RMCFT and will gladly welcome further contributions. The challenge will take place in Liverpool and will consist of solely sit-ups (abdominal exercise) and press-ups (arm exercise; triceps).
Glyn Forshaw, the managing director and lead clinician of ‘G4 Physiotherapy & Fitness’ is among one of the reservists taking part from the RMR.
If you would like further information on the charity or would like to voluntary contribute to the RMCFT please feel free to contact the G4 clinic or visit http://www.rmctf.org.uk/
We have a selection of charity RMCFT wrist bands and t-shirts available at the Didsbury (Manchester) clinic which are available in exchange for kind contributions.
