Help for Heroes was launched on 1st October 2007. We wanted to do something practical for the men and women of our Armed Forces who are wounded while serving in the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. We asked the Chief of the General Staff for a task and we were told that we could best help by raising money to provide a much needed swimming pool and gym complex at Headley Court.
We are non political and do not wish to comment on the rights and wrongs of a particular conflict; we simply want to do something to help those very special people who are brave enough to volunteer to serve their country and are wounded while doing so.
We have had the most wonderful reaction from the public and we are well on the way to raising our initial target of £6 million. Once we have done that, we will ask for further tasks and hope that the British public will demonstrate its support for our men and women by continuing to donate to Help for Heroes.
This is our chance to show we care, appreciate and support all our Servicemen and women.
Thank you,

I very much welcome the work Help for Heroes has done to generate extra support for the Services and to raise money to further improve the care our troops receive when injured. The Halfords Help for Heroes Bike ride is a way for the British public, and our friends overseas, to support our wounded servicemen and their families. Funds raised by Help for Heroes will help build a new swimming pool and gym at our outstanding Tri-Service Rehabilitation Centre at Headley Court. I urge you to back the Halfords Help for Heroes Bike Ride and the other initiatives that make up this wonderful campaign. The Services genuinely appreciate your support.”

Hi all,
I am trying to get the message out about this event that I am organising in the summer.
Basically, myself and a group of soldiers from Blandford are going to carry a stretcher from Plymouth to London, 285 miles in only 5 days!!!!
Full details can be found at www.mercurysmarch.co.uk, and there is also a donations page at www.justgiving.com/mercurysmarch
I would be eternally grateful if you could give this all the support you can and let others know about it. I am hoping to raise over £100,000 for the Help for Heroes charity.
Thank you for your support |
