A man from Manchester is trying to raise £10,000 for Help for Heroes (H4H).<\/p>\n
Instead of setting himself an easy New Year's resolution, Andrew Bell kicked off 2012 by promising to collect the massive total for the military charity, Mancunian Matters reports.<\/p>\n
With nearly 11 months of his challenge completed, Mr Bell has so far managed to raise £7,500 and is set to make a final push in the run-up to Christmas.<\/p>\n
The University of Chester student – who also volunteers with the Forestry Commission – has organised raffles, tombolas and various table top sales in an effort to hit his target.<\/p>\n
"I believe that H4H does a truly amazing and fantastic job in making sure our injured servicemen and women get the best treatment and care that they deserve," Mr Bell stated.<\/p>\n
He hopes that some Christmas-themed fundraisers will be able to carry him over the line.<\/p>\n
