KIAN ROCHE, aged 8, raises over £1000 and gets commendation

Having raised over £1000 for the Great Tommy Sleepover, eight-year-old Kian Roche recently received a Commander British Forces Commendation from Commodore Steve Dainton, Commander British Forces (CBF) in order to recognise his exceptional fund-raising achievement.


Kian first found out about the Great Tommy Sleepover through the youth club based in HELM Point, Four Corners. The Sleepover is an event which challenges families to sleep outside for one night to raise funds for The Royal British Legion Industries. However, the initiative is not just to raise money but also to increase awareness of homeless exservicemen and women as it is estimated there are 6,000 veterans currently homeless in and around the UK.
