I just received this by email:

On Sunday 26th July 2009, 07:55, listen to Martin Bell OBE broadcast an appeal on behalf of SSAFA Forces Help on BBC Radio 4 http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4

On Christmas Eve 2007, whilst serving in Afghanistan, Royal Marine Mark Ormrod was critically injured in a landmine explosion. He lost both legs and his right arm. Martin Bell will tell listeners how SSAFA helped Mark and his family, and how the public can help us support the men and women in our Armed Forces and their loved ones, in times of need.



The programme will be repeated on the same day at 21:26 and on Thursday 30th July at 15:27 and available online by visiting http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes
