Supporting wounded service personnel in the Yorkshire Region
April 30 - May 5, Sponsored 400 km cycle ride from Le Havre to Guise, Aisne where the Iron 12 were executed. Please support us and help us raise money to erect a memorial to commemorate the eleven British soldiers and the French citizen executed by the Germans in Guise, on 25th February 1915. The site of the memorial is to be in the village of Iron, Aisne, where the soldiers were concealed from the occupying Germans for about 5 months until their discovery and execution. It’s a story full of daring, intrigue and tragedy. Briefly, in the first few weeks of the WW1 campaign, the soldiers became separated from their regiments in the retreat from Mons and became trapped behind enemy lines. They lived rough in the forests until they were bravely taken in by the villagers of Iron. They were kept hidden in the village mill before being betrayed to the Germans. The British soldiers and the mill owner were executed by firing squad against the walls of the Chateau at Guise. By erecting a memorial we hope that it will be act as a reminder to future generations of the sacrifices unselfishly made by our ancestors. ironmemorialfund" target="_blank" title="Link opens in a new window">
Kilimanjaro Marathon/Climb on 06/03/2011 Hello all. We are planning to head to Tanzania in February in order to undertake the Kilimanjaro marathon, and, the following day, to climb Kilimanjaro itself. The Marathon will take place on 27 February in the foothills of Africa's highest mountain. You can read more about it at www.kilimanjaromarathon.com. The climb will start the following day on 28 February and will take 6 days. During the climbing phase, we will attempt the steepest non-technical route to the summit, which stands at 5,895 metres. Rich will be climbing in military kit, carrying 25 Kg; the weight required to pass the Army's 8 mile Combat Fitness Test (CFT). Charlotte will be climbing in civilian attire. The two events will be a significant test of cardiovascular fitness and stamina, in hot conditions and at high altitude. Once we are in country we will upload photos and post updates to keep you all appraised of our progress. Thank you all for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. We will be dividing the money raised between 'Help for Heroes' and 'H.O.P.E.', a local MS therapy centre in Pembrokeshire which Rich's uncle attends. All donations, however big or small, will be greatly appreciated. Please give whatever you can to help us reach our £4000 target. Rich and Charlotte

Words for the Wounded is a UK based charity that raises money via international writing prizes and donations for the rehabilitation of our wounded servicemen and women. We act as a conduit and pass the money we receive to projects such as Battle Back, largely funded by Help for Heroes which encourages wounded service personnel back into sport. These young men and women were at the peak of their fitness when life changing injury threatened to take their sense of self-worth from them. We want to help them focus on what they can do, rather than what they can’t. It is for this reason that we are supporting initiatives such as Battle Back which helps injured service personnel to lift the limitations caused by their injuries. At the same time Words for the Wounded wants to encourage writers and non writers to produce work of which they are proud. We want to unearth talent and lead people towards writing fulfilment - to help build confidence in those who enter, and those who are helped by the funds raised.
