Thank you as always for your support!
🏳️‍🌈 June is Pride Month, a time to celebrate LGBTQ communities, recognise their contributions, and reflect on the challenges many have faced. As the Army's national charity, we continue to support veterans who were impacted by the ban on LGBTQ personnel serving in the Armed Forces, and who may still need help today. Our recent grant of £40,000 to @fightingwpride has enabled the recruitment of a new Veteran Community Team manager, Marti, who also serves as Community Worker for the North East and North West. In just a few months, Marti has had a transformative impact, strengthening policies, enhancing team training, and focusing efforts on direct support for veterans. As part of this work, new LGBTQ veteran drop-in groups are being established, starting at the OUT Community Centre in Gateshead. These spaces will help veterans connect, access support, and feel part of a community. #PrideMonth #LGBTQPlus #Veterans #ForSoldiersForLife
