Hello community​

A reenactment event has been organised in Kent, Maidstone in aid of the Help for Heroes charity.
If you are based around the South of England please do consider going to this event. It will be the biggest Napoleonic reenactment in the UK for 25 years with over 500+ reenactors.

This whole event is for a good cause, the charity, Help for Heroes. This charity is there to support soldiers, mentally or physically wounded.

Many great regiments will be taking part like the 51st, 41st, 42nd, 2nd Coldstream, 21e, 45e and the 85e. It will involve Infantry, Cavalry and Artillery so it will be a terrific sight to see.

It is based over the 26th, 27th of May, South lodge, West St,  Hunton, Maidstone, Kent, ME15 0RN

Contact Davout or Dougie for more info and i will hopefully see some of you there for support.​

How exactly do they raise the money for it through the event? Is it Entry fees, donations, them buckets that people ask for donations in or what?
Good cause indeed.
I'd go if i was in England but, not very convieniant to fly over from NI.
