What is E Goat's chosen charity for 2008?

I know this year it's been Combat Stress.

May I suggest the British Legion?

JB - I think the plan is to remain with Combat Stress until Mid year then look again. To be truthful, when we do choose the next charity, It may well be one of the lesser known service charities, rather than one of the biggies.

As Fomz says we will be with Combat stress until sometime Next Year when we will decide where we will go next. Like Fomzsays we are more likely to go for one of the smaller Service charities than the big hitters.

Organisations like Combat Stress, St. Dunstans, Limbless servicemen's associaton etc survive solely by donation and do not benefit directlt from huge flag day appeals.

Thanks for the reminder Tats, I got TV's through them for a few people when I was caseworking with SSAFA. A very good organisation and worth thinking about when make our choice.

Gotcha. Makes sense.
