Armed Forces Para-Snowsport
Team (AFPST)
The purpose of the K4H
expedition in 2021 was to raise money for the Armed Forces Para-Snowsport Team
(AFPST). The charity exists to support the recovery of wounded, injured and sick
military personnel and veterans. By providing opportunities for these
individuals to take part in snowsport activities, the charity helps to enable
their continued mental and physical rehabilitation post-injury.
It was thanks to AFPST the Carl,
Darren, Jonny, and Luke first met at a Nordic skiing camp in Norway (December
2019). It was during this training camp that the idea of organising a major
fundraising challenge for AFPST was first discussed, from which Kayak 4 Heroes
was born!
It is thanks to the
activities provided by the charity that the Kayak 4 Heroes team met and have
planned this year’s ambitious fundraising expedition.
As an independent service charity, AFPST exists to support the recovery of our wounded, injured and sick military personnel and veterans. Having served their country, it is now up to us to ensure they are not forgotten. We aim to foster a sense of purpose, encourage success and re-build self-confidence using the transformative power of para-snowsports. By motivating, engaging and inspiring our athletes, we can help restore their physical and mental health.
