Healing The Wounds on runway to success!

Healing The Wounds, the Welsh charity which helps treat sufferers of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder), is raising its profile at Cardiff Airport.
If you’re taking a holiday out of Cardiff Airport, then you are likely to be met by volunteers raising funds for the charity.
“We’ve already received a great deal of help from the general public in fund-raising and we’re very grateful for businesses and councils who have helped by giving us permission for bucket collections,” said Healing The Wounds fund-raising manager Rachel Phillips.
“Now, we’ve been handed a great opportunity by the team at Cardiff Airport to carry out bucket collections from now until October 31.
“Holidaymakers and travellers often end up with lots of loose change weighing them down at airports, so it’s a great opportunity for us as a charity.
“It will also go a long way to helping to raise the profile of the charity, which is now running regular treatment courses for people with PTSD.
“The work we do is hugely valuable and important for the brave men and women who serve our country. To see the transformation in PTSD victims after they have attended one of our treatment courses is to appreciate what the term ‘life-changing’ really means.
“In addition to the bucket collection, our volunteers will also be able to tell travellers about the work we do as a charity so that people get a better understanding about the team behind Healing The Wounds.”
The Cardiff Airport collection is being coordinated by the team at the charity’s headquarters in Bridgend.
Fund-raising manager Rachel Phillips and events manager Amie Phillips are appealing for volunteers for the collection period until October 1.
If you think you can help, then contact Rachel and Amie at Healing The Wounds, Office 26, Enterprise Centre, Bryn Road, Tondu, Bridgend, CF32 9BS, telephone 01656 728281.
The Healing The Wounds charity was set up in December 2009 to help provide PTSD treatment for members of the armed forces and veterans. It aims to set up a Welsh base for the treatment of PTSD. It is already arranging treatment courses and building a team of counsellors who can treat PTSD.
