Help for Heroes

Help For Heroes is probably one of the best known charities in the UK, providing help and support for servicemen and women (Despite the strapline "It's about the blokes") wounded in the current conflicts around the world. 

There are many ways that H4H raises money for its cause, the most popular way is through the sale of its tri coloured wrist bands, but there is a whole host of branded merchandise available from Help for Heroes from which the proceeds are used to care for the wounded.  Other popular methods are sponsored activities, like mountain climbs, bungee jumps, long distance runs or swims etc. in which the participants raise sponsorship for the activity and then donate to Help For Heroes.

The wrist bands in red, light and dark blue are seen on the arms of many celebrities, like His Royal Highness Prince William, HRH Prince Harry, David Beckham and many more and cost only £2.  The range of merchandise however covers everything from beach towels, cufflinks, key rings, T Shirts, pens, note pads, slippers, chocolate bars and chocolate drinks...... the list is endless.

You can also make a straight donation using one of the methods outlined on this page http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/donations.html

So there are plenty of ways to show your support and the recipients really appreciate it, get involved today!
