Help For Heroes Charity Funding

EDM number 2268 in 2008-09, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 10/11/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Armed forces welfare, Charities and Veterans.

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.

This motion has been signed by a total of 32 MPs.
