Charities thank Towergate Wilson’s staff and clients for their latest donations

Towergate Wilsons has been a leading provider of insurance to the HM Armed Forces for 60 years and continues to support leading charities working with active personnel, veteran and their families.

BLESMA, the British Limbless Ex-Service Men's Association provides support and care for amputees and other disabled ex service personnel, has written to thank Towergate Wilson's staff and clients for their latest donation.

Whilst the media reports daily on service personnel who die in support of current military operations, little is heard of the larger proportion of casualties who survive their injuries. BLESMA exists to help support these servicemen and women throughout their lives. The donation is being used to help fund the rehabilitation programme planned in conjunction with the Wounded Warrior programme.
