Wheels for Charity so far this year 2010

So far this year Wheels for Charity have attended a few events not as many as this time last year but we have had a far better results in our fund raising efforts.

We attended Truckfest as a Club and started handing out pre-paid envelopes for Phones for Heroes as well as collecting for the Forces Children's Trust.

After Truckfest we went along to visit our good friends Rewaco Trikes UK at the National Motor Home show. At the event we handed our Gala Tent Brouchers with our Promo code and also Phones for Heroes Pre-paid envelopes.Here are the photos from that event.

We also did the same at this years BMF when we visited Rewaco Trikes there as well

Our Biggest event to date this year was the Southend Air Festival where we teamed up with our good friends The Marham Veteran's Group,

At this event we took part in 2 ground displays each day of which one was the Sunset Ceremony to the Fallen.

The other display was the K9 display and Forces Children's Trust Tornado GR5 which was built form recycle material by the Marham Group and Piloted by Wheels for Charities own Pilot Flt Lt Tommy Gladstone.

The hole weekend was a great success raising money for the Forces Children's Trust and also we handed out nearly 3000 pre-paid envelopes for Phones for Heroes.

We are back in Southend on the 3rd August for another fundraising event and we will be taking part in ground displays again including the Sunset Ceremony.
