selected as its good cause 12 months ago and a series of fundraising events have been held to collect money for it, the Herald Express reports.<\/p>\n<p>Bill Phillips, past captain of the club &ndash; which has been in existence since the 1800s &ndash; and the man who chose H4H, noted over &pound;1,000 was raised in one night when BBC commentator Peter Alliss came to a dinner free of charge.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I wanted to raise money for the cause purely because I am always impressed by the sacrifices our armed forces make and this was a little way of trying to give something back,&quot; Mr Phillips observed.<\/p>\n<p>He remarked he is delighted to have collected so much money for the charity, before adding he had a great time organising all of the events as well.<\/p>\n<p>Posted by Simon Williams<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801403199-ADNFCR\"
