He told the news provider that the priceless work done by the charity can never be underestimated.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, locals in the village of Wilberfoss in the East Riding of Yorkshire are set to raise money for Help for Heroes through a new fancy dress event. The evening will take place at The Pavilion on Saturday November 29th from 7.30pm and will feature live entertainment and a disco.<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801761968-ADNFCR\"
