A school in Morpeth is to host a charity dinner to raise money for Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Families Association (SSAFA) Forces Help.<\/p>\n
It is being held at Morpeth Town Hall on Thursday (November 17th) and comes after Remembrance Day was held four days previously.<\/p>\n
According to the Morpeth Herald, the event is priced at £15 per person and it is hoped people will donate as much cash as possible.<\/p>\n
A hog roast – plus numerous vegetarian options – will be on offer, while attendees are also set to be entertained by King Edward VI School pupils.<\/p>\n
It is hoped the event will go some way to showing the community's support for the work of military personnel from the UK.<\/p>\n
SSAFA Forces Help currently assists 50,000 people every 12 months and has been in operation for more than 100 years, with both current and ex-servicemen and women covered by the organisation.<\/p>\n
