HELP FOR HEROES CHARITY FUNDING

Motion Text

That this House supports the Help for Heroes charity which was established to help those injured in conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan; pays tribute to the founders of the charity and the volunteers who help ensure that the money raised goes to those who need it most; notes that the charity aims to raise £20 million through high profile events, sponsorship and individual donations by 2010; and calls on the Government to provide match funding in order that organisations and projects designed to help injured troops have the finances available to provide first-class care and support.
