Great achievement to be nominated - great effort keeping the squad motivated, encouraging others to join in and of course raising awareness of our own charity - @RAFBF - who supports serving personnel and veterans, and their families.
We are absolutely honoured to be nominated for the Fundraising Team of the Year at the @RAFBF Awards 2021 for our efforts and enthusiasm in organising and running the 12-hour WOD’athon which was held virtually 💪🏻 Watch out in October when the winners are announced 🥳

Time away from work is really important, to recharge, pursue other interests and build resilience. ‘Family First’, we must lead by example, get ‘off the grid’, stay contactable, but not connected. The Astra Ways of Working are key to this.

RAF Medic, Sergeant Cheryl Drysdale has received a heartfelt thanks from a member of the public on Twitter after using British Sign Language whilst administering the vaccine in London. Full story: bit.ly/31ncY16 #BritishDeafAssociation #BSL
I had my jab. I cried because the RAF Woman who did it was a BSL user. The first time in 50 years of being Deaf, in a medical situation someone has signed! The first time! It was a profound moment.

72'| Bath earn two penalties at subsequent lineouts, the power game still effective. We dominate Irish with three consecutive Mauls, the last one sees @JoshJMcNally crash over for a try in the corner. Conversion missed. ☘️36 - 28 🛀 📲 Match Centre | bit.ly/3dribur

On this day ....... On this day in 1981 Peter Larter played the last of his 20 Inter-Service matches and so became the only RAF person in the history of the Tri-Service tournament to play in three different decades.
