Story

Hi Guys,
I know most of us are skint/very busy but I would really appreciate it if you could take five minutes to check out this page.
On the 20th December,in a fit of festive tomfoolery, I am going to conquer my dual fear of big high tingz and flimsy bits of elastic by trying my hardest not to wimp out of a flamin' bungee jump. Of course, I wouldn't be putting myself through what I am sure will be a pant wettingly terrifying experience for nothing, and here's where you come in..

Doubtless you've all heard of the brilliant work being done by the Help for Heroes charity on behalf of wounded Servicemen and women returning from Afghanistan and Iraq, as they have recieved some fantastic exposure in the media/celeb world recently.. But despite millions of pounds being raised to buy much needed services that will aid their recovery, almost all of this money has been used in order to fund direct projects and support other service charities. There's still more to be done people!

As I said before, I know most of us are skint students, skint graduates, or just plain skint,and I am also aware that the presence of troops in Afghanistan is in itself a very contentious subject, so I would like to stress that this charity has NO political affiliation, and is not attempting to 'brainwash' or convert anyone to a particular way of thinking, but is merely taking action to try and ease the day to day living situations of people who have shown, and continue to show, immense bravery in situations that most of us will never have to dream of facing.So please, if you could see fit to drop in on my page and maybe chuck a few quid in my direction I would be ever so grateful. Don't be put off by thinking that you've only got a bit of loose change lying in the corner somewere, or be concerned that it will look 'stingy' to donate that, I cannot stress enough that every little really does help, so anything you can possibly spare will be gratefully accepted! Remember that by adding gift aid to your donation you will increase the amount of moolah we can give direct to the charity!
Thanks for taking the time to read this guys, I hope I've managed to persuade some of you to part with a little hard earned cash, but if not, just remember,if I go splat from a great height, how guilty will you feel that you didn't  give me that odd 20p you found on the floor at the pub?? ;)
