At 09.35 on Thursday 21st March, 2013 the 617(The Dambusters) Squadron officially unveiled the 70th Anniversary Commemorative Tail launching a year of celebration and tribute!
The Squadron Anniversary Charity is Leonard Cheshire Disability and a donation from the sale of each item will go to them.
Leonard Cheshire Disability was founded by the late Group Captain Lord Cheshire of Woodhall in 1948. WEBSITE By then a famous war hero, at the beginning of that year he was living alone in an isolated mansion in Hampshire winding up a community project for ex servicemen and women which he had started at the end of the war. Discovering that one of the former members of the community was terminally ill and had nowhere to go, he offered to care for him in his own home. To his surprise, he found others in need coming to him for help and so started what was to become a worldwide organisation developing services for disabled people.
