Veteran Helen Bolland is getting ready to host a special dinner in a bid to raise as much money as possible for Help for Heroes.<\/p>\n
Ms Bolland is no stranger to fundraising for the military charity, having earlier this year joined a group of friends in walking the Great Wall of China and coming up with a sum of £17,000, reports Carrick Today.<\/p>\n
Now, she is turning her attention to a grand meal that will be accompanied by an auction when it takes place in Ayr this September.<\/p>\n
She told how Help for Heroes is not only about supporting ex-servicemen with injuries, as it is also helping her in her quest to go back to university.<\/p>\n
Ms Bolland has been impressed by the items already offered for the auction, stating: "I'm overwhelmed by the response because I didn't really expect much."<\/p>\n
The aim is to raise about £1,000 on the night itself.
