Help for Heroes is a new organisation formed to help those who have been wounded in Britain’s current conflicts.

I am Bryn Parry, a cartoonist. I was in the Army for ten years but nothing in my experience came close to what our servicemen and women are facing in Iraq and Afghanistan. I had an opportunity to visit the wounded at Selly Oak hospital and Headley Court Tri-service Rehabilitation Centre and was profoundly humbled to meet some extraordinary people there, both the wounded and their wonderful nursing staff.

I have organised an appeal to support our wounded. Help for Heroes is strictly non–political; we are leaving the talking to the politicians while we get on with raising a great deal of money to directly support our servicemen and women.

We have the backing of the head of the army, Chief of the General Staff, General Sir Richard Dannatt and are working closely with the service charities especially the Army Benevolent Fund. Now we need your help to make this a national movement to support our Armed Forces.
