We had a fatal aircraft accident on my squadron, all on board were killed. The boss appointed a number of us to act as liaison to the bereaved families. Mine had cash on the kitchen table within 24 hours, thanks to the RAFBF. I have always remembered that and support the fund to this day. Those who provide such practical help are to be applauded, whichever of the Service Charities they work for, voluntary or employed. The Service is above all a family, one that you will always belong to. At this time of year in particular it is well to be reminded of that.

Cargosales, I can offer no practical help, unlike those who have posted above, but I'm sure I speak for all when I say that I wish you good luck and that hopefully the help you seek is already there for you.
