What an amazing achievement lads, superb. 

The money raised is testament to how hard Ben's death has hit everyone,  and how much he was liked, and respected by so many.

Well done mate.

An amazing amount of money raised. ❤️ although the OCD in me would love it if we could hit £10,000 before it gets shut off.

Absolutely RFC, it’s surreal. 

[Sparkle 53,611]

Simply the best group of people, absolutely humbling to see the kindness on here.

Yes it is such a pity that he is not still here, and we had raised nothing, but since that was not to be then it is an incredible amount donated.

What we have done will ensure Ben will never be forgotten and we may even save a life.

Hi all,

I'll post this in a few places to get as much coverage as possible for those who may be interested, but @Negri's lovechild and I are planning to run the Glasgow Winter Warmer 10k to raise more funds in memory of Ben. The event takes place on February 4th which gives people a few months to train.

The plan is to run it as an RM team and everyone is welcome to join. I've done 10k runs in the past, but I am not a hardcore runner by any means, so please don't think you have to be into running to join in. 

Winter can be a hard time for people ( it is for me) due to the short daylight hours and Christmas not being a time of happiness for everyone, so having something to focus on can be beneficial for your own mental health. If there is sufficient interest we can have a wee group chat for the guys and girls involved and maybe meet up for a few training runs together over the winter. @Negri's lovechild and I don't know each other at all, so there is obviously no need to know either of us. 

Finally, we will be aiming to raise funds and will start a donation page probably after Christmas. Everyone has done an unbelievable job raising what we have in the fundraiser, and this is an expensive time of year, so we won't be asking for any cash right now! 

If you'd like to be involved just let us know!

Fantastic amount raised. #Rangersfamily

[16BlueSherbert90 19,224]

@SkylineBlue I have a work related back injury at present so won't be able to train for this, unless a miracle occurs...but I will absolutely donate towards the fundraising when the time comes 👍🏻

 

Fantastic achievement reaching over £10K. Well done to everyone.

I echo @RFC55 comment. I would be far happier if Ben were still with us. He would be very proud of us all knowing this will go towards charities that meant something to him.

I won’t lie, I’ve been unable to click on the banner for a while now and not out of being horribly tight or not wanting to donate. I’ve definitely just avoided it for obvious reasons.

I’m thankful that I’ve managed to donate now before it’s been closed.

£10,385 its currently sitting at.

That is powerful.

We love you Ben. Rest easy.

[Creampuff 22,628]

Lost among the massive amount of money raised is the fact more than 500 people have donated. What an incredible number.

[Blue72 1,102]

It can be mental on here for sure but just goes to show that RM really is a good bunch of cunts - and, more importantly, recognition that people notice our kind actions and how we help others given how many people have came out to donate in memory of Ben who clearly had such an impact on people online or in ‘real life’.

..... And there's more .... with a double dunter from our own Rfc55 ...  then Bronzy  ... Spitfire 88 and Juniorparkie  taking it past the £10,500 mark.

As said above ... the fundraiser should be kept open until the end of the month ... to give more to the designated charities and Ben's legacy at Ibrox.
