This is a great result! Help for Heroes stands to benefit a great deal from this. Thank you for all who supported H4H and best of luck to the other charities as well.
I think it is also worth pointing out that Student Action are a permanent local beneficiary of RAG. So money raised by RAG over the next year will contribute in keeping Student Action running. (Volunteering Wing of the SU)
SUPPORT OUR SOLDIERS! Fantastic result
I think it is worth noting publicly the fact that Dan Taylor has worked extremely hard at promoting H4H as a beneficiary.
Dan takes a lot of stick at points on the Yorker but here you can only commend his enthusiasm and persistance.
Obviously there is a lot of work to be done to raise the money now! Good luck to all those working for it next year...
