An 83-year-old fundraiser is hoping to generate funds for Help for Heroes (H4H) by selling off military-related merchandise.<\/p>\n
Richard Burton of Sywell – who has already collected £260,000 for leukemia charities – is offloading a new range of fridge magnets and keyrings that feature armed forces images such as the Vulcan and Spitfire aircrafts, the Northamptonshire Evening Telegraph reports.<\/p>\n
The products, which have appeared in the magazine Britain at War, also include logos of the Northamptonshire Regiment and the Royal Anglian Regiment.<\/p>\n
Mr Burton explained he carried out his military service duties as a young man in Kenya, adding his items would be ideal for those who have served in a particular regiment and desire a keepsake.<\/p>\n
He said the pieces have proven very popular so far, adding: "It appeals to the people who have got friends and relatives in the present day armed forces and to the tens of thousands that have served in the armed forces."<\/p>\n
