    Advantages Advantages Excellent couragious stories, raising awareness of the charity

    Disadvantages Disadvantages May be hard reading for some

    ‘Today the word ‘hero’ is too often used; for me it is a very special word and should be used sparingly: a hero is someone distinguished by exceptional courage, nobility and fortitude. This wonderful book by Gill Shaw is to raise funds for just such men and women injured in the line of duty whilst serving our country - REAL heroes’ Ross Kemp, Patron of Help for Heroes. This book came to my attention when I was looking on the Help For Heroes charity website in their shop.

    Advantages Advantages Informative with interesting pictures

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not hard back, so not as hard wearing

    This book was a present and as a forces wife I found it very interesting, it tells you about the charity, who they help and what people do to raise money for the charity.

The fundraising events which are well photographed include an Everest Marathon, JOGLE (John O Groats to Lands End) Cycle which ... more
