“Brothers in Arms” by Angie Handley is available from Amazon, iTunes, Napster etc, and holidays4heroes gets a huge slice of your very modest expenditure.

At the moment we have fifty (yes, fifty} families already booked for holidays to Cyprus, Tenerife and Florida.  The programme starts in about 3 weeks, and will provide some much-needed and well-deserved relief for the wounded and the families.

We are also re-organising our vehicle fleet at La Torre, selling the smaller cars and buying a couple of people-carriers which will be better able to carry wheelchairs and larger families.  The driving and airport pick-up is done either by our on-site holiday rep, Ian, or by volunteers from the La Torre community.

Funds obviously remain very tight, so any donations will be much appreciated.
