RAF team to take on 10k run to raise funds for RAF Benevolent Fund

A team of serving RAF personnel will take on a 10k run in Lincoln to raise money for the RAF Benevolent Fund. 

The team is made up of Cpl Nicholas Bunn, CT Gaz Brigden, AS1 Tech Will Mupfupi, AS1 Tech Akeim Willis, AS1 Rob Sandell and AS1 Bayley Sanderson.

Nicholas, 36, has been serving in the RAF for 15 years after joining in 2007. 

Looking ahead to the run, on October 30, he said: "I love living in Lincoln and wanted to push myself beyond my local Parkrun. I am looking forward to representing the RAF and RAF Benevolent Fund publicly at my local event and socialising post-run with a well-earned coffee and cake."

Speaking about why he is supporting the Fund, he said: "I have recently returned from an Operation Tour of Mali, Western Africa. Personal circumstances on my return resulted in me seeking the RAF Benevolent Fund’s counselling support. I appreciated the help and I wanted to give something back to the RAF Benevolent Fund."
