Thank you to our volunteers for making all this happen and for raising awareness of SSAFA in our area! For more information about the work we do as a branch, you can see our website: https://t.co/vD2q9UidrX

Volunteers from London SW Branch have been busy raising awareness of SSAFA in Richmond. The Branch had a stall at the Richmond Full of Life Fair held at Twickenham rugby stadium. This was an opportunity to explain to visitors to the fair how we support the military community.

[SSAFA LondonSW @SSAFALondonSW]

The stall led to a meeting with a local MP, @RuthCadbury. This was a great opportunity for us to tell Ruth about our work and cases we have dealt with. Ruth was very interested, asked lots of questions, and took away some of our leaflets to give to her caseworkers!

#WeWillRememberThem

[SSAFA @SSAFA]

They shall not grow old, as we who are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
