This is a British charity that aims 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.

"What is H4H all about? It’s about the blokes, our men and women. It’s about Derri, a rugby player who has lost both his legs, it about Carl whose jaw is wired up so he has been drinking through a straw. It’s about Richard who was handed a mobile phone as he lay on the stretcher so he could say goodbye to his wife. It is about Ben, its about Steven and Andy and Mark, its about them all. They are just blokes but they are our blokes; they are our heroes. We want to help our heroes."

My bike club is supporting this campaign and we are also supporting it where I work.

I've been reading through the posts on this forum and I've been moved and humbled by many of them. I thought I'd post this to show what we're doing over here. Our servicemen and women do extraordinary things on our behalf; this is how we can do something special for them.

"....No man is an island, entire of itself...any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee." John Donne (1572-1631)

May God Bless every single one of the US, Canadian and British troops serving in these two conflicts. May God also bless their families and take care of them.
