Sponsored Walk in aid of 'Help for Heroes'

'Help for Heroes' is an organisation formed to help those who have been wounded in Britain's current conflicts and I'm both delighted and proud to be taking part in a sponsored walk on Saturday 22nd May to raise funds for such a worthwhile cause.

As it says on the 'Help for Heroes' website, the charity was founded by Bryn and Emma Parry after a profoundly moving visit to Selly Oak Hospital in the summer of 2007.

Bryn and Emma met some extraordinary brave young people who had been badly wounded and they just wanted to do something to help.

The walk of about 11 miles, starting from Kirkliston (West Lothian) bowling club at 9.30am, going across the Forth Road Bridge to Inverkeithing and then back to Kirkliston.

That same night, there will be a fund-raising social evening, also at Kirkliston Bowling Club, starting at 7pm with tickets priced at £5 each.

I've set up a 'Just Giving' page and if you can help in any way, that would be great. You can visit the page by clicking here.

If you live in the area and would like to take part, or perhaps attend the social evening, please get in touch.
