Peter,s Legends Banger Racing Meeting

Fundraising for UK HOMES 4 HEROES PRIDE & PASSION

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Last year at Arena Essex Raceway they had a Memorial Banger Race meeting for one of the old Legends Ronnie Martin , which turned out to be a big crowd puller with many old school Banger drivers racing . Arena Essex have planned another Memorial meeting this year on the 23rd October and are trying to get some more of the old boy legends to come out and race again for this meeting . So I thought it would be a good idea if I could raise some money for charity and choose Home 4 Heroes after reading some sad stories from some of the veterans . I would love to raise as much money as I can to make some difference to those veterans and I am willing to take a few bruises and bangs for what I feel is a good cause . Please donate if you can even just a small amount will be greatly appreciated . Everyone is most welcome to come and watch me . My last race was back in 1976 and have retired from racing .

This Charity was founded on the 23rd April 2010 in response to the plight of homeless ex service personnel. It is estimated that over 4500 previously serving members of the British Armed Forces are sleeping rough in the UK today. With MOD due to be making cuts this figure is going to rise. UK Homes 4 Heroes objectives are: 1. To dedicate hostel style accommodation to our ex service personnel and only them. Providing a safe, clean living environment where they can feel secure and at home. 2. To help gain a permanent home through social housing, assisting through the application and bidding phases. 3. To provide counselling services for people with psychological disorders, i.e. Depression and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Over the short period in which this charity has formed the response we have had from the British Public has been overwhelming. We have had interviews on BBC Radio 5 Live, coverage in the Sun Newspaper and countless updates in our local Paper, The Southwark News. reaction to this Charity has been incredible, we still need more help, more donations, more awareness and above all more support. We have a 16 strong team of dedicated professionals team heading this operation and we will not give up until we succeed. We have the backing of the London Pearly Kings & Queens, one of the oldest charitable institutes in Britain today.
