CitySprint News

CitySprint is the UK's leading SameDay courier company and is the preferred supplier for the Ministry of Defence. For every job CitySprint undertakes on behalf of the MoD a donation is made to a selected Forces charity. Charities are selected on a quarterly basis with input from both the MoD and CitySprint.

Help for Heroes was chosen as the launch charity with donations made for each job during the period November 2009 – January 2010. CitySprint presented the donation on 13th May at CitySprint's Southampton ServiceCentre. Judy Horne, Volunteer Hampshire Coordinator, from Help for Heroes was presented the cheque by Nigel Cattermole, National Business Development Manager, of CitySprint.

When presenting the cheque Nigel said: "We are delighted to be able to do our bit to support such a worthwhile charity. Help for Heroes believes that anyone who volunteers to service in time of war is a hero. We believe this wholeheartedly and present this cheque confident in the knowledge that it go towards making a real difference to servicemen and women around the country."

Judy Horne, Volunteer Hampshire Coordinator, from Help for Heroes said: "We are incredibly grateful to all of our supporters and would like to formally thank CitySprint for their support. The work we do is dependent on donations such as this and vital to enabling us to continue to support the Servicemen and women returning from Afghanistan."
