SEND A MESSAGE TO A VETERAN THIS CHRISTMAS

Thousands of veterans will spend this Christmas lonely and isolated.  Battling mental trauma. In constant pain. Living with disability. 

Please take a few minutes to write them a message of support to thank them for their service and to let them know they’re not forgotten. These messages will be shared with veterans.

If you're a veteran or family member and you're finding life tough, there are many ways we can help. Click on the Get Support button at the top of the page to get in touch today.

As I stand and stare, My memories & my thoughts are cloudy, But your friendship was always there. As I travel in my mind, I see you there, a great big laugh Now you are no longer around, No sense, no sound Richie, you have gone but clear, Your laugh is still wondering around down here. I think of you often, the life you gave for your country, An ungrateful nation, no valour. Just a forgotten chapter. I remember you, I smile as you used to do, But, you are not here, my smile is mixed with tears.
