Story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

A BIG THANKYOU to everyone who helped out or sponsored us!

Arnie Arnell dressed as a far more convincing Superman, to Martin Hine's Wonder-woman on the day.

On Sunday 8th March 2009 we ran the Saints way in aid of Help for Heroes and have over £600 pledged.

The weather was fantastic for the first 15 miles but as we reached Helman Tor (our highest point) it turned to heavy showers and stayed like that until the end at Fowey. Friends met and ran with us along the way which really helped in the latter stages as tiredness took over. We finally did it in 5 hours 8 minutes, arriving bloodied and mud covered at the church, dressed as superheroes, just in time for the end of Sunday Service...oops!

Thank you all once again!

What is HELP for HEROES all about?

“It’s about the blokes, our men and women of the Armed Forces wounded in action. It’s about Derek, a rugby player who has lost both his legs, it's 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’s about Ben, it’s about Steven and Andy and Mark, it’s about them all. They are just blokes, but they are our blokes; they are our heroes. We want to help our heroes.”

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: 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.
