My story

 
Hi all!

 You all know me as Jaffa Holland and I work and live in Birmingham. My brother is in the armed forces and as we’ve all seen in the news, our returning service men and women get very little in the way of help if they are hurt abroad.

 So I have decided to try and raise some money for them!

First off I’m going to walk the Camino de Santiago.

On March 13th I’ll be starting my walk in France at St Jean-Pied-de-Port and some 36 or so days and 802 km later I’ll finish on the north coast of Spain at Santiago de Compostela

ALL the money I raise is going to Help For Heroes

Help For Heroes is all about raising money to help our returning service men and women who have been hurt abroad.  Check out their website (see link below)

Help For Heroes is backed by the Army Benevolent Fund, the Army’s own charity that does wonderful work for soldiers and other servicemen and women both directly and through its support of other service charities.

http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/

I’ll be taking pictures of each place I visit along the way just so as you know that I haven’t hitched a lift and have walked the whole way.

Please know that as I am walking so far that I may get hurt I am hoping that this will not be the case but any money given can't be taken back.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Help for Heroes will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

 Thank you for taking the time to read this

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
