[Stories in Transition Project @Veterans_SiT]

Our @ahrcpress Stories in Transition project has a twitter account! We are telling stories of veterans' transition to civilian life through arts, culture and sport. How do veterans imagine 'civilian' futures? What practices do veterans undertake to 'transition' to civvy street?

Thanks to local veteran D. Vincent for allowing @MediaVeterans to share his moving tribute.

[Jenna Pitchford-Hyde @DrJennaPH]

Fantastic new collection available from Jan 2022. Pulling this together with contributors from around the world during a global pandemic was an incredible achievement... congratulations and thanks to @dpompper ! (And in a shameless act of self-promotion, check out Chapter 7!😉)

[Veterans and the Media Project @MediaVeterans]

This might be of interest to our Veterans and the Media followers based near London... great project team working with the @I_W_M!

UEA and @IntoUniversity's new education centre in West Earlham, which opened its doors this week, will benefit thousands of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds in Norwich - meaning plenty more excited young faces for years to come! 😃

Research participants wanted for research into how partners of UK veterans navigate the transition to civilian life. A great opportunity to get involved with research or pass on the information to someone who might be interested.
