The festival not only will entertain you, but the organisers hope to raise money for the injured troops from all of the armed forces. It is also to remember friend/colleague and son Private Richard Hunt who, 4 years ago, died of injuries sustained whilst in Afghanistan. The dates that the Festival fall on this year would have seen Richard celebrate his 26th birthday this year so it is even more fitting that the Festival is bigger and better.

The money raised at the Festival will help the families to receive the very best treatment available to make their lives as normal as possible. 4
