covering Blackburn with Darwen, Hyndburn and the Ribble Valley &ndash; took part in a range of events over the last year.<\/p>\n<p>Between June and August, Britain's police are hoping to raise a collective &pound;1 million for the Help for Heroes drive, which was first launched back in 2007.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the month, the Derbyshire Times reported on fundraising efforts for the charity by
