Epic 100km Walk Helps Fund Anti-Gravity Treadmill For Blind Veterans

A team of veterans with visual impairments are training for an epic walk to raise money for Blind Veterans UK.


It’s the third year in a row the charity has entered a team into the walk.


Last year money raised went towards an anti-gravity treadmill.

The treadmill is perfect for blind running, as the user is strapped in, so there is no fear of falling off.

It can also be used by those undergoing rehabilitation following injury.
