Story

Hello

Thank you for taking the time to visit my just giving page!

On the 28th March, I will be participating in a High Heel Hike in support of Help for Heroes.

No, not a hike up a high hill... We will be 'hiking' in our heels through Alfaz del Pi then on to and through Benidorm.

I will be taking sponsors before the event and also collecting money on route but your donation will be valued and most gratefully accepted!!

As you know, we often hear of the brave soldiers killed in combat but little is said about those poor heroes who are terribly injured. This is where Help for Heroes has an invaluable role providing practical and direct support for our wounded. Please take a moment to read their mission statement....

"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’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."

So please, dig deep for my endeavours and let's help support this worthy cause!

 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you in anticipation,
