My story

 

In July 05 I was blown-up whilst working near Baghdad, losing my left arm, left leg and seriously damaging my remaining leg and buttocks. There followed 2 yrs in hospitals and rehabilitation before returning to 'normality'; I therefore know first hand just how important the work of Help for Heroes is.

Despite my injuries, I undertook a 13,500ft tandem freefall with the British Army Parachute Regiment's "Red Devils" parachute display team at Netheravon on the 1st of July 08 to raise funds for Help for Heroes - watch the video here...

          you can find more information about Help for Heroes here ...

                                  and the Red Devils here ...

Please sponsor me for this freefall, your contribution will help those who have been injured since, and those unfortunates who are yet to come.

        Thank you for your support, Pete
