‘When we knew the charity provides much-needed assistance to members of the Royal Navy, Royal Air Force, and British Army – together with the ‘blue light’ emergency services - we felt we could make a positive difference with our contributions.’

Mr Parton, the founder of Hounds for Heroes, was presented with the money that had been raised on Monday, June 20.
