Happy and safe christmas and New year. May the Naafi never run out of anything! Thats if you still have a Naafi. Spent our honeymoon in a Naafi hotel because it was near to the hospital!

Thought you might like to read this from the H4H newsletter

"Dear H4H Supporter,
On 12th November, a team from H4H went up to Headley Court to take part in the Topping Out ceremony. We were very privileged to be given a guided tour by the builders and all those who are working so hard to finish the building in record time. For H4H this is far more than the creation of a building, this was our first task and this was the focus for our initial fund raising; this is what inspired you to help.
When Emma and I decided to do our bit to help, we asked General Sir Richard Dannatt what we could do, what did he need? He said he wanted the blokes to have their own pool rather than be taken to the public pool in Leatherhead. We passed the message on to the people of this country, not having a clue what to expect... And look what happened! Money poured in and it’s still pouring in at a rate of over £1m a month as the ordinary decent people of this country, that’s you, do your bit for the blokes.
So, the Help for Heroes Rehabilitation Complex will be superb, it will have a wow factor, it will be worthy of the blokes who will use it and you have made that happen. We know several young men, friends, who will use the facility and we just can’t wait for the day that it is all operational. In the meantime, have a look at the photos and the video and give yourself a pat on the back for being a part of something very special indeed; well done."
