16 /12/09 Who needs another Christmas Card? Let's face it Christmas Cards are a bit old hat and end up in the Bin. So we decided to send a cheque to Help for Hero's instead. Like your good self, we spent most of our year sitting at a desk or out and about doing Outdoor Media. Our Armed forces in active service spent most of their year avoiding bullets and bombs. These guys and girls show true spirit, grit, bravery & determination and continue to defend us all. Too many lives have been lost & lives changed in the theatre of recent war. Anyone who volunteers to serve in time of war, knowing that they may risk all is a Hero. These are ordinary people doing extraordinary things and some of them are living with the consequences of their service for life. It is too often we see in the media images of our Servicemen & Women injured in Afghanistan & Iraq and processions of their fallen comrades through Wooten Basset. We should never forget. We may not be able to prevent our soldiers from being wounded. However, together we can help them get better. This is why you didn't get a Christmas Card from us and they get a donation instead.
