. CHARITABLE ADVERTISING on Web Site
There are many worthwhile charitable causes in existence, but we can only accept sponsorship or fundraising efforts on Fusilier Association websites, that specifically support approved Fusilier charities.
This essentially means that it is acceptable to use these pages to seek sponsorship for The Fusiliers Aid Society (which includes Fallen Fusiliers), and The Fusilier Memorial fund only.
We now have our own dedicated justgiving site (http://www.justgiving.com/fusiliersaidsociety), which you can use to help raise money for your cause. If you let RHQ (Asst Regt Sec) know the specific cause you are raising money for, it will be directed to the correct fund.
Messages soliciting sponsorship for causes or charities other than the Fusilier ones mentioned above should not be placed on the message board and may be removed by the Webmaster.
Messages posted in the last 24 hrs. are in White.

Fusilier (Retd) Aaron Aston
It is with sadness that I report the death of Fusilier (Retd) Aaron Aston, a former member of the Second Battalion. Aaron served with the Second Battalion between 1998 and 2008 and was a member of the Drums Platoon for most of his service.
The funeral will take place on Tuesday 13th December 2016 at 11.30 at the Oaks Havant Crematorium, Bartons Road, Havant, Hampshire PO9 5NA.
To avoid overwhelming the family, please consider whether your presence would be helpful. In order to keep the family informed please let Maj Cole know if you plan to attend at midsec@thefusiliers.org so that he can keep them up to date on numbers. They have asked us to be sensitive and sensible.
