Story

You will not believe it, but I have volunteered to run 5km and cycle 10km in aid of Help for Heroes at our local gym.

I know that this is a time when lots of people are asking for Sponsorship for numerous worthy causes.  Help for Heroes is a charity close to my heart, especially as so many of my friends are involved in UK Military Operations overseas.  We must help our Heroes who are recovering from the most horrific and disfiguring injuries.

"What is H4H all about? It’s about the blokes, our men and women. It’s about Derri, a rugby player who has lost both his legs, it about Carl whose jaw is wired up so he has been drinking through a straw. It’s about Richard who was handed a mobile phone as he lay on the stretcher so he could say goodbye to his wife. It is about Ben, its about Steven and Andy and Mark, its about them all. They are just blokes but they are our blokes; they are our heroes. We want to help our heroes."  Bryn Parry, Appeal Chairman

My goal is to raise £2000.  Please help me to reach my goal.  I will not let you down - so I had better get my running shoes on!  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 very much for your support - I will think of you as I plod along my way...

Best Wishes, Jane
