Veteran actress Helen Mirren
has urged people to back a military support charity after a soldier was
brutally murdered on London streets.
A 25-year-old Army Drummer
named Lee Rigby was killed in Woolwich, south east London Wednesday.
When he breathed his last,
Rigby was wearing a t-shirt promoting Help For Heroes, a charity for troops
injured in conflicts. Now "The Queen" star is urging fans to stand in
support of the organisation.
She herself donned a Help For
Heroes shirt for a photocall for the purpose, reports dailystar.co.uk.
"The young man who
died... was showing where his heart lay by wearing his Help For Heroes top. It
was monstrous that he should be killed for that. I think Help For Heroes is a
fantastic organisation - it is a charity that does amazing work. This attack
won't stop that and hopefully Help For Heroes will just get stronger,"
Mirren told The Sun. (Source)
