This evening members of the Branch committee, attended the Blandford Garrison youth club and presented them with a cheque for £1000 which is going towards helping to fund a trip for the youngsters.
The purpose of the trip is to research and follow the path of a female SOE agent

Can you help find a veteran with an unclaimed forces pension?
– Between 2020 and 2022, over 4,000 preserved Armed Forces pensions went unclaimed.
– The pension is not paid automatically. Veterans must apply to Veterans UK using AFPS Form 8 or call 0800 085 3600 for info.
