Having seen a definite need for Recovery Houses, we are working hard to raise a further £20 million pounds to build 7 Houses across the country. The Edinburgh house is nearly complete, and we are now raising funds for the Colchester house.
The Edinburgh Hero House, to be named after Mark Wright GC, will be opened on 17th August and will be funded by us, run by Erskine and staffed and populated by the Army. It will house 12 wounded soldiers and will act as the pathfinder as we learn how to provide the very best for our blokes.
The Colchester House is fast becoming a reality and we are finalising the design with the Army and we hope to see it operational by the Autumn of 2010. Providing the funds keep coming, we will open further houses in rapid succession so please keep fund raising!
