This is Mick and Graham from the Maintenance Department at Care for Veterans. They have been using their own tools at work so we were delighted to help them out with these new ones. We were very pleased to show Kim and Elizabeth (fund raisers for Care for Veterans) around Draper Tools head office in Chandler's Ford last week.

Luke Stiles, a young racer we have been proud to help support, is pictured here having won the Invicta Kent Junior Special Perpectual Trophy.
