Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

Due to my current change in circumstances - I am having a baby!!!! I will no longer be able to participate in this skydive at this specific time. I am however just putting it on hold until after the baby is born and I will resume fundraising then. Thanks for understanding.

Help for Heroes raises money to support members of the Armed Forces who have been wounded in the service of their country. They use the money raised by people like myself to buy much needed services that will aid their recovery, but they need alot more!!! Not alot of people understand what an amazing job our soldiers do and how hard it is on them and their families. You see on the news every single day stories of soldiers being killed in Afghanistan, which is bad enough in itself, but what isn't often reported on the news is the thousands of soldiers that are severly injured, some so severe their life as they know it is never the same again. Help for Heroes is a charity specifically set up to help these soldiers get back to health and on the road to a good if not full recovery.

This is my chance to give a little something back and its your chance too. I ask that you dig deep and donate as much as you can possibly afford. It's for a very worthwhile cause and we wouldn't have the country we live in today if it wasn't for the amazing soldiers out there fighting for us!!!

 

Thank you for your donations however big or small!!!
