Altrincham and Sale West MP Graham Brady
Altrincham and Sale West MP Graham Brady has welcomed the news announced in today’s spending review, that the Victoria Cross Trust is to receive a grant of £600,000.
Graham Brady is a patron of the charity, which works tirelessly to ensure the memory and graves of every Victoria Cross recipient are remembered and maintained for generations to come.
The Altrincham and Sale West MP said: "I am delighted that the Chancellor has responded to my call and has recognised the nation’s debt to so many of our heroic countrymen by approving this grant.
"It will ensure that these important memorials to the fallen will be preserved with the dignity and care that is appropriate."
