The legendary Jeffrey Long, 91, has just completed another epic fundraising challenge!
The former paratrooper walked 40 miles around his hometown of Bingley in West Yorkshire.
Over the last 15 years, he has raised more than £300,000 for Armed Forces charities. What a hero! 👏
ALT Former paratrooper, Jeffrey Long, stands in front of the Cenotaph in Bradford. He is wearing British Army multi-terrain pattern uniform and holds a walking stick in his left hand. In his right hand, he holds up a maroon beret, adorned with a parachute regiment badge.

Last CCF training session of the term was also the last parade for Lt Col Jonathan Pooley as Contingent Commander @RHSSuffolk who moves to the USA in the New Year to take up the role of Commandant at Riverside Military Academy, GA. Aptly he was marched out in a US WW2 Willys Jeep
