Each year the Association raises funds for a charity selected by that year’s President.

For his year of office, President Richard van Nes nominated The Household Division Charity, which supports past and present members of the British Army’s Household Division Regiments and their families.

On 1st May Richard was delighted to visit Horseguards to present the charity with £5,000 raised at the Banquet and Ball in February, supplemented by a further £200 from Western District’s Casino Night Party.

The cheques were received on behalf of the charity by Major General Ben Bathurst CBE.
