Portsmouth cadets complete 10k to raise funds for charity

City of Portsmouth College Uniformed Protective Services cadets and staff have raised £665 by taking part in the Worthing 10k in aid of Care for Veterans.

The team donned weighted bergens and boots for the June event on a beautiful day on the south coast.

Care for Veterans was set up in 1919 to care for soldiers returning from World War I with life-changing disabilities.

For more than 100 years, they have provided long-term nursing care, rehabilitation, respite and award-winning end-of-life care to disabled ex-armed forces personnel from the RAF, Army, Royal Navy and auxiliary services.
