Police officers are taking on a seven-month fundraising challenge as they seek to collect £100,000 for a military charity.<\/p>\n

Members of the South Wales and Dyfed-Powys force are coming together in support of Help for Heroes (H4H), the South Wales Evening Post reports.<\/p>\n

They are also teaming up with security firm G4S as they carry out a range of events that will capture the public's imagination.<\/p>\n

The scheme was launched on Sunday (November 25th) with a bucket collection at the Liberty Stadium and will culminate with the Heroes Challenge UK, which is set to take place in May 2013.<\/p>\n

It will see a team of 12 people cover more than 1,250 miles of Britain by land, sea and air – as well as completing a skydive in Swansea and climbing four different peaks.<\/p>\n

South Wales Police's PC Richard Morgan thanked Swansea City for helping them to "kickstart [their] fundraising adventure" on Sunday.<\/p>\n
