HELP for HEROES

Coastal tour of great britain


My name is David Tomkinson, starting on the 8th of June 2009, myself and a friend are going to ride around the coast of Britain on motorcycles using only A & B roads. In all, we plan to cover over 3500 miles in 2 weeks.


The idea came from reading a article in a motorcycle magazine, where the editor had rode along the south coast collecting for this charity ‘HELP for HEROES’. A charity for service men and women coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan who have lost limbs out there.


Surely the government should look after them I hear you ask! Well they do not have the money to provide a swimming pool and gymnasium at the Headley Court rehabilitation centre. So was born the H4H charity to fund the building for these much needed facilities.


Our goal is to raise £1 for every mile we do! So that’s £3500 in total and anything over that would be a bonus. I would be grateful for a £1 donation but if you would like to give more, that would be generous of you and very much appreciated.



Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Help for Heroes gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
