ROYAL Navy veteran Hugo Petty has raised money for those injured in the line of duty.

The ex-serviceman, of Regents Park, Southampton, raised £800 for Help for Heroes as part of a national campaign in Asda stores.

He raised £500 from merchandise and £300 from donations at the store in The Marlands Shopping Centre, Southampton.

He said: “The volunteers and the team at Asda were very helpful.

We’re coming out of Afghanistan in 2014 and we really need to support the guys that have been injured.”
