We’re not going to talk about insurance.

Regular listeners will know that AdvantageGo has been a great supporter of the Voice of Insurance since the early days of the podcast.

But you might not have known that this excellent technology company is also an important backer of UK military charity, ABF The Soldiers’ Charity.

AdvantageGo is an associate Sponsor of The Soldiers’ Charity’s Annual fundraiser, the Lord Mayor’s Big Curry lunch at the Guildhall in London, which is a fixture attended and supported by many in the London Insurance market.

It’s the Soldiers’ Charity’s work we want to showcase here, particularly a highly successful programme the charity funds in the field of pain management.

So I’m going to introduce two services veterans, Russ Kirby (pictured bottom right) and Bernie O’Toole (top right) who have both been through the programme.

Russ is a Navy veteran and Bernie was in the Army.

You may find parts of their accounts distressing, but I would encourage you to continue because you will be rewarded with a great story of empowerment and optimism.

The pain management programme has given them their lives back and you will feel their positive energy as they recount drastically reducing the painkillers, or dispensing with them entirely and regaining the confidence and optimism to look forward to productive and satisfying future lives.

As Bernie says – the programme works and it’s worth its weight in gold.

For worldwide listeners, B&Q is a major UK DIY store.
