Story
Well it's here. The Splank! Annual 2024. A 110 page squarebound softcover, and its brought some friends along. More details on the Sector 13 comics Web-page.
All proceeds from the comic, except printing costs and postage will be donated here, to NHS charities together. But in case comics are not your thing, please think about leaving a little something to say thank to the men and women who day after day cared for and treated the people hit by illness and who, during the Covid-19 pandemic, placed own lives and well being at risk for the sake of others.
Forget Superman or Spider-Man or even Judge Dredd, the staff of the NHS have no superpowers, or special weapons. They have their skill and courage but most of all they have their compassion. They gave everything they had during the Pandemic and are still working to catch up. We owe them and the institution of the NHS more than we can ever repay.
"NHS Charities Together" work with a network of over 230 NHS Charities across the UK, to help the NHS go further for staff and patients. By leading national fundraising campaigns and supporting NHS Charities in their work, their aim is to help the NHS to go above and beyond what would normally be possible and ensure that everyone can have better healthcare.
When Covid-19 hit in 2020, "NHS Charities Together" launched the first ever national appeal for the NHS, raising over £150million to support staff as they faced the biggest crisis in the NHS’ history.
Since then, they have continued to raise money and awareness for NHS charities at a national level, ensuring that funds are sent to where they are needed most.
So please, spare what you can and donate on behalf of the comics fans of Britain.
