Fundraising for Help for Heroes
Story
A team from the King's Royal Hussars will take on the challenge of cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats in just 6 days. This is an average daily distance of 145 miles and passes through the Lake District and the hills of Scotland. To put this in context, the longest leg of the 2008 Tour de France is 144 miles - less than our average daily distance. Each day we will be cycling hard for around 12 hours, burning around 10,000 calories and drinking around 12 litres of water.
Help for Heroes is a charity close to all our hearts. It is raising money to improve the facilities at Headley Court, the military rehabilitation centre where our injured servicemen are sent to recover. Indeed Capt Mark Brightwell, a team member, has spent a great deal of time in Headley Court following an injury sustained in a rocket attack in Iraq last year.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Help for Heroes gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
Thank you for your donation - every little helps!
