Help for Heroes has been given four vehicles by Vauxhall, which will be used in its fundraising events that help to support soldiers injured on duty.<\/p>\n
A Movano van and three Astra Sport Tourers are included in the two-year deal and have been donated to chief executive and co-founder of the charity, Bryn Parry.<\/p>\n
The van will come in particularly useful when the organisation is selling merchandise, moving large boxes and heading to air shows, while the cars are versatile and will suit a range of purposes.<\/p>\n
Help for Heroes markings have been placed all around the vehicles to draw attention to the cause.<\/p>\n
Mr Parry – who founded the charity in 2007 – welcomed the donation and said the transport will be essential, as the organisation has to travel around the UK and Europe to carry out its work.<\/p>\n
Vauxhall managing director Duncan Aldred commented: "Vauxhall is proud to be supporting Help for Heroes as it raises money for servicemen and women who have given so much for their country."<\/p>\n
