aparantly they are worth 2.5p each.

so what do you think??
any ideas for a charity? I would have thought help for heroes would be as good as any.
Good Idea But I was told
Help for Heroes, this is as I have been told is not a Charity, it is run as a busness, they are buying houses for our lads, but keeping the deeds in there name so they can sell on.
As a ex service person and has raised with others at the 2009 reunion over £1400, and gave it to H4H, then we found out about them.

We now give the money to the Cadets, I am not saying not to help our lads, but there is better charitys out there, which gets less advetising.

I would still give my Co2 cartridges to the club for H4H, which ever you pick.
I have had my say it's up to you.
