Are you up for a ‘Heroes Breakfast’?

by | May 9, 2016 | Dartford Charities

Help for Heroes (H4H) are asking the nation to start the day in the best possible way; with a good deed!  Their latest fundraising initiative is a great way to fundraise with friends and family or with work colleagues.

Everyone says that breakfast is the most important part of the day, and in this case, it is!  Whether you go for a healthy option, a good fry up or try something new, a ‘Heroes Breakfast’ is one of the easiest way to raise funds for our heroes.

A free fundraising pack is available to everyone who registers and includes collection boxes, a sweepstake game, balloons and Heroes Breakfast banner.

The ‘Heroes Breakfast’ campaign is from 13 – 26 June 2016, however if this isn’t convenient please feel free to choose a date that is.  To register or for more information visit www.heroesbreakfast.org.uk or call 01980 846459.

Emma Parry, CEO & co-founder, Help for Heroes: “H4H is all about ‘doing your bit’ and this event is a wonderful example of people rallying support and having a great deal of fun while they raise money. The money you raise is needed, it is being used and it is hugely appreciated.”

H4H offers comprehensive support to those who have suffered life-changing injuries and illnesses in the line of duty. This is provided through grants to individuals, other charities and organisations, capital build projects and four Recovery Centres across the UK which offer support for life. The money raised by the hugely generous public has been used to support the wounded, but there is still so much more to do. Soldiers, sailors and airmen who are injured today will still need our support tomorrow and in the days that follow, for the rest of their lives. They are still battling and H4H will not let them battle alone.
