EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1981, the local sigmas regiment of Middlesbrough stepped up to support a playgroup scheme in their community. Determined and dedicated, the dozen soldiers ran an arduous 41-mile distance from Gateshead to their regimental headquarters at Brambles Farm. Their mission? To raise over £100 for the children's summer playgroup project in the estates. Captured after completing their impressive run, we see a proud group of individuals who made this charitable endeavor possible. Standing tall in the back row are S/Sgt Pete Dorans, S/Sgt Ken Perry, Warrant Officer Pete Skinner, Major Pete Taylor, Sgt John Matthison, and Sgt Clive Blackburn. In front of them stand Ptes Jane Weightman and Beverly Hope alongside the regiments commanding officer Lieut. Col Bill Illingworth. Completing this remarkable lineup are Pte Joan Weightman and Cpl Gerry Ord. This heartwarming image showcases not only the camaraderie within the armed forces but also their commitment to making a positive impact on society beyond their call of duty. The year was 1981 - an era characterized by its sense of community spirit and dedication to supporting local initiatives through fundraising efforts. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst challenging times like those faced during the 1980s, acts of charity can bring people together while creating lasting memories for generations to come.
