Anne Rose cycled from Downham Market to Sandringham with her brother David Rose and his wife Sadie in aid of the charity which has previously supported him.
David is based at RAF Honington, near Bury St Edmunds, where he represents the fund.
He spent 31 years in the RAF as an engineer before being medically discharged in 2018.
Anne, who also served in the Royal Air Force as an avionics technician between 1990 and 2003, said: “Being ex-RAF myself, I thought it was important to raise money for the fund.
