. 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.
message from Colonel of the Regiment IP: 217.44.72.16 Posted on 15/12/2017 at 11:00:14 by Dennis Laverick for RHQ
The Colonel of the Regiment
sends
Christmas and New Year greetings
to all
Fusiliers and their families
Have an enjoyable and peaceful festive season
Colonel’s Christmas Message
It has been another cracking year for the Regiment – but I know not without its challenges. Our Battalions go from strength to strength and this year we have been able to welcome Machine Gun Platoon (Bury), A (Sheldon) Company and C (City of London) Company back into the regimental family. Great news and I’m sure we will reap the benefits of having a Reserve battalion with a truly national footprint. The pairing of First and Fifth battalions is already starting to have an effect; I saw Fifth Fusiliers in the back of Warriors on the recent exercise in southern Germany. More to follow next year and we have an exciting programme to look forward to including Canada (BATUS) and operations in the Ukraine.
Next year is our birthday and I hope you have all seen the outstanding programme that has been put together by the Fusilier 50 team. I know you will all get behind it to make sure it is a year to remember – a chance to celebrate and trumpet our amazing Regiment.
In the meantime I wish you and your families a peaceful and restful Christmas and a very happy New Year. Remember to spare a thought for all Fusiliers who will be away from their loved ones over the festive season and, in the spirit of OAFAAF, let’s ensure we look out for those who might find this time of year a bit of a struggle.
