Helping Us, Helping Them, Helping You  

THE IDEA

The idea that gives you the opportunity to help lift spirits and make life a little more bearable for our service men and women in Afghanistan and Iraq. The shoeboxes are filled with popular items which make the lives of personnel abroad more bearable.

Remember our troops are based out in Afghanistan all year round therefore we always collect and send boxes out all year. After New Year we will be collecting and encouraging donations of shoe boxes for Valentine's Day!!      

Another chance to bring a smile to a soldiers' face!!

Ian Whiteway, Operations Director said "I'm sure lots of people will be keen to help out troops at a time when they are far from home and engaged in difficult tasks in Afghanistan. It is the little more humane things that make life out there more tolerable, things like wet wipes, sweets, razors, deodorants . We really do need as many people as possible to fill a shoe box to help bring some cheer to our troops and more importantly, let them know that back home in Britain we are thinking of them. Thank you all!"
