A team of Help for Heroes volunteers from Bovington Thrift Shop raised £500 from their Colossal Cake Sale.
Being an army based shop, the Help for Heroes charity is close to many of the staff’s hearts and a lot of their customers are fans of the charity, so they were inspired to take part in the Colossal Cake Sale this year for the second time running.
The funds raised by the Colossal Cake Sale will help the Charity continue to deliver direct support to wounded Service Personnel and Veterans including a key new project this year, the Hidden Wounds Psychological Wellbeing Programme, as well as the on-going development of Help for Heroes’ four Recovery Centres at Catterick, Colchester, Plymouth and Tidworth.
These projects will be instrumental in the long term support of individuals and their families.
