Story

Do you want to make me look this silly again? You can.

I am doing another five day cycle ride to raise money for Help For Heroes this June - from Normandy to Paris, to mark the 75th anniversary of D-Day.

If you sponsor me, I promise I will wear a dress, stockings and a fully-loaded bra on the bike.

Please may I ask for your incredibly kind generosity to give whatever you can to sponsor me again? 

Why? Because though their wars are over, the need of the men and women wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan has never been greater.

recent King's College London study revealed 83,000 former servicemen and women are still suffering from their physical or mental injuries from the modern wars of the last 25 years. Most of those injuries are life changing. The state is incapable of meeting all their health, housing and rehabilitation needs. But you seldom see their pictures on TV, donations to military charities are drying up.

Thank you so much for whatever you can do - it really makes a huge and immediate difference to these people's lives.
