We would like to welcome three more very brave and worthy young lads who have received Honorary Stormtrooper status with the UKG.

On Saturday 2nd April 2022, the UKG attended the 5th annual Hollywood Glitter Ball in Hull where funds were being raised for two causes.

The first cause was for 8-year-old Alex and 12-year-old Joel Wilkinson who so sadly both have Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy for which there is no cure and who need equipment to assist them.

The second cause was Duchenne UK, a charity funding research into the condition.

Also in attendance was the organiser's son, Ashley Wegg (14), a massive Star Wars fan who also suffers from DMD which currently has an average life expectancy of just 27 years.

Thank you for your service troopers!
