Tommy Club Ambassador: Harry Kane

England Captain, Harry Kane MBE recently joined the rising number of famous faces who are supporting the Tommy Club, including musician Jools Holland,and TV explorer Levison Wood. We find out why Harry is proud to be a Tommy Ambassador.

Many of you may have seen pictures of Harry pictured at Spurs’ Enfield Training Centre, next to a life-size specialedition Tommy.

The figure, called Tommy United, recognises the famous Christmas truce of 1914 which saw British and German forces come together to play football between the trenches of the First World War.

Tommy Club President and former Chief of the General Staff Lord Dannatt said: “Football is a universal language and in 1914 people were able to put aside their differences and come together for a brief moment and play the beautiful game at a time of great struggle. Despite everything they managed to create a moment of peace. I am delighted that Harry Kane is helping to draw attention to the Tommy Club. RBLI’s factory has been able to stay open, because of the public’s support for the Tommy. It is something our nation can feel very good about.”

We are all so excited that Harry Kane is helping us to take on the issues that face veterans today. Thank you to Harry and all our epic Tommy Champions for all that you are doing.

I encourage people to get involved and support the Tommy Club as every newChampion mak es a difference. Together we can improve the lives of our nation’s heroes. RBLI have supported military veterans for more than 100 years and I know the great work they do employing ex-service men and women and helping them overcome significant challenges.
