Story

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

The aim of this page is to hopefully gain as much recognition for the cause and hopefully raise even more money online through the generous people who we just won't meet in person. 

I will be Skydiving with Hannah on 18th April, Hannah's idea, but i couldn't very well let my sister jump out of a plane and being a soldier sit back and watch a very lovely civvy out do me.

Sisterly love and all. 

We will be jumping at Headcorn Parachute Club, in Maidstone, so if you dont believe us feel free to pop down to have gander.

What is H4H all about? It’s about the blokes, our men and women of the Armed Forces. It’s about Derek, 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."

The charity Help for Heroes was launched in October 2007 in response to the desire of ordinary people to do something practical to help our wounded servicemen and women. As individuals we are powerless to prevent war and we feel helpless that we are unable to stop our men and women from being killed and wounded. By joining together as Help for Heroes, we are doing something practical to help; we are doing our bit.
