Bike Tours for the Wounded

I am doing the tour as a rider to take ex military personnel on a trip of a lifetime around the USA. Some of whom have been injured physically/psychologically during their service. The tour will start and finish in Los Angeles and we will be riding Harley Davidsons the whole way! What a way to travel; no less than our veterans deserve. The money we raise will go towards paying for future events.

Help Anton send a wounded veteran (Chelsea Pensioner) on the trip of a lifetime — Route 66 with Bike Tours for the WoundedChelsea Pensioners are among our nation’s most treasured veterans. They represent generations of men and women who have served with honour and sacrifice. Many veterans now live with the lasting impact of injury, trauma, or disability. Too often, those scars — whether physical or invisible — mean they can no longer enjoy the freedoms most of us take for granted.That is where Bike Tours for the Wounded (BT4TW) offers a unique and life-changing solution. Through this remarkable programme, volunteer motorcyclists carry disabled veterans as pillion passengers along historic and iconic routes. For those no longer able to ride themselves due to disability, it is a chance to rediscover the thrill of the open road, rebuild confidence, and find space to heal. Guided by the motto “ride, refocus, decide”, these journeys have a transformational impact, helping veterans connect, reflect, and re-imagine what comes next.BT4TW *want* to take FOUR disabled veterans who are Chelsea Pensioners on a healing respite trip of a lifetime. Three of them are fully funded.But one person is *not* funded. This is where YOU and I come in.I am fundraising £2,595 to cover the costs of sending one disabled Chelsea Pensioner veteran on the healing respite Route 66 tour. This includes essentials like accommodation, meals, entry to landmarks, support staff, and fuel. Currently this person is not funded. I know from personal experience the difference these tours make. As a past volunteer on a BT4TW journey through Normandy’s D-Day sites, I saw veterans overcome barriers, and find strength in each other and the volunteers. The experience was transformational. From moments of solemn remembrance to laughter shared on the road, the change was unmistakable: hope rekindled, burdens lightened. We have less than a year to raise these funds. With your help today, we can make this extraordinary experience a reality for a Chelsea Pensioner veteran who needs and deserves it. Every donation, large or small, is a direct contribution to honouring their service and giving an extraordinary person a chance to heal, reflect, and thrive.Thank you for your support. Together, we can make a lasting difference.
