Eamonn Holmes is to front a radio fundraiser being held in aid of Help for Heroes.<\/p>\n
The celebrity will be hosting a special programme as part of an 18-hour appeal that will see GMG Radio's Real, Smooth and Rock stations come together to raise funds for the cause, Radio Today reports.<\/p>\n
It is the second time the annual event will take place – with last year's show generating more than £200,000.<\/p>\n
The broadcast will feature the stories of inspirational troops who have been injured in battle.<\/p>\n
Holmes said: "Whose heart doesn't go out to the brave soldiers and families who have borne the brunt of conflict? They need our help and appreciation."<\/p>\n
He added it is a real honour to have been asked to present this special event for an amazing charity.<\/p>\n
A collection of 65 local women from Stoke recently stripped off to pose for a calendar – entitled Real Stoke Girls – to raise money for Help for Heroes, the BBC reported.<\/p>\n
