In September, Milo completed the Combat Stress Cycle September challenge, choosing to complete a 250KM cycle ride to raise funds for veterans facing mental health struggles. Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict.

Milo comes from a proud military family. His dad served 10 years with the Royal Engineers and now continues his service with the Royal Monmouthshire Royal Engineers Reserve, often away on duty. His mum works with Op Courage, supporting veterans with their mental health. Inspired by their commitment,

Following his fundraising achievements Milo was recently invited to an evening reception in London to celebrate amazing fundraisers and volunteers.  Well done Milo we are all very proud of your achievements.

The children investigated the Scientists profiles and then asked them question via a chat platform about their projects and careers. There were some amazing questions form our Year 4 pupils!
