1 Rifles Swift and Bold Wristband Appeal
The RIFLES is now almost continuously deployed on operations in Afghanistan. Casualties are part of thei job. The Swift and Bold wristband campaigns provide funding for much needed immediate support and assistance for the families, girlfriends and boyfriends of the dead and wounded in those devastating first hours and days after a tragedy. Examples of fund uses can be found on www.swiftandbold.org. In the medium and long term excess funds are used by the Rifles Regimental Trust to fund meaningful projects for the wounded and their families. Examples of this work can be found on www.careforcasualties.org.uk.

THE 1 RIFLES GIRLS AFGHAN-ATHON
The 1 Rifles girls have set their own challenge whilst the Battalion are deployed on Herrick 14 in Afghanistan... to keep fit and cover the equivalent distance from Chepstow to Camp Bastion!  We have a group of girls signed up for the challenge which will last for 26 weeks and cover 5135 miles. Us girls will be walking, running, swimming, biking and rowing away to make up the miles all in support of the 1 Rifles Swift and Bold Appeal.We will update monthly to let you know how many miles we have covered and with photos. Thank you for your support.
 The 1 Rifles Appeal (www.SwiftandBold.org) has been launched to provide much needed immediate support and assistance to families, girlfriends and boyfriends of the dead and wounded in those devastating first hours and days after a tragedy. Swiftandbold.org is a fund that is raised for a specific Rifles' Battalion during the period that they are deployed abroad. Any money that is raised and not used goes toward the main Regimental Charity, Care for Casualties - http://www.careforcasualties.org.uk/ which looks after the casualties and families of all 5 Regular Rifles' Battalions and the 2 TA Battalions.Thanks for visiting our page.
