Current Goal

Ben's mission is to travel the world spreading the word about the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund (who support those who served in the Royal Air Force), and in particular their support for the Guinea Pig club (https://www.rafbf.org/news-and-blogs/guinea-pig-club-lasting-legacy), who were badly injured in the name of duty but went on to inspire others. He would love to have pictures taken of him with anything heart shaped.

About This Item

Ben on a heart

If you share your caching on Twitter, we would love to hear about this TB's journey: @arrowandthesong

The Guinea Pig club- https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guinea_Pig_Club

The Guinea Pigs were a unique band of RAF airman who paid a heavy price while serving for their country during the Second World War. Sometimes burned beyond recognition, with life-changing injuries, they battled disability and discrimination to go on to lead fulfilling lives.

More than forty years on, the Guinea Pigs have used their own experiences to support other British servicemen who have sustained similar injuries in the line of duty.

Ben would love to have pictures taken of him with anything heart shaped.
