Pocktoberfest.... 2012

As we start the countdown to Pocktoberfest 2012 don’t forget – we’re fully committed to raising as much money for local charities as possible so we look forward to seeing you there!

We're delighted to tell you that this year, for the first time, we shall be officially supporting the Help for Heroes charity. Thanks to the fantastic British public, H4H has raised over £135m since its launch in October 2007. All the funds raised have been either allocated or spent on the direct, practical support for the men and women who are wounded, injured or become sick while in the service of our country. H4H has funded a variety of projects including the £8m Rehabilitation Complex at Headley Court, a new £3.5m treatment centre for Combat Stress, adaptive adventure training through the Battle Back programme and the creation of a £6m Quick Reaction Fund to support individuals in need. Keep your eyes on this website for more information about our fund raising activities this summer!
