After a long day being dragged around the shops by my wife and kids whilst on Christmas leave I settled down to watch Noel Edmonds Christmas Presents show. All the way through the programme I noticed one good cause after another receiving well deserved surprises and gifts, the programme was close to the end and came to its last 10 minutes, it's then I saw ( to me ) the most well deserved cause of all - The Forces Children's Trust. After seeing the great job the charity does and being a serving soldier in the British Army and also having lost friends on operational duty who had kids and seeing the heartache and pain the loss of a father causes I felt I had no choice than to try and help this cause as much as I could, so I sat down and thought of a plan to put to my troop when they returned from leave to raise money.

On the weekend of 25th -26th November 2006 we organised our first outing, the party of 43 consisting of Army widows and children visited London for a children's fun weekend sponsored by the Forces Children's Trust.
Enjoying a visit to the theatre to see Mary Poppins, the children were thrilled at the end of the performance when Mary Poppins (Scarlet Strallen) and Bert - the sweep (Gavin Lee) came to meet them and pose for photographs.
