RGJRA In the News

Richard Matters (a Green Jacket from  1974 – 2005) will walk the Way of St James, also known as the Camino de Santiago de Compostella, across the north of Spain from the Pyrenees mountains to within a few miles of the Atlantic coast, starting on Sunday 4^th October and finishing about 5 weeks later.   Richard is  raising funds for the Rifles Regimental Charities which serving and former members of the regiment together with their families and dependants, including those of the former and antecedent regiments that are the forerunners of the Rifles.  Assistance takes the shape of disability adaptation, such as stairlifts, mobility equipment,  such as wheelchairs, and a host of other means alleviating hardship for members of the Rifles family.  The current level of operations in Afghanistan have resulted in large numbers of casualties in battalions of the Rifles, and given the likelihood of a continued military presence in that country, calls on the regimental charities can only increase.  Dig deep and many thanks, Rifleman Matters.
