We have seen a few other charities and organisations detailing their Christmas closures. We know Christmas and New Year can be a difficult time for some people, so we'll be keeping an eye on our messages in case people need us.
Today some of our veterans had an away day to @PirateGolfHull followed by a carvery lunch which turned into a bit of a food challenge! We had a great time. If you're interested in joining us in the future drop us a message.
We know this is a time of year which can bring lots of difficult memories and feelings. Valkyrie is open to veterans from across the UK. Reach out if you need us.
@Gbower2003 We're not local to you, but we're happy to chat to you if you'd like. DM us. If you contact RBL they can allocate you a caseworker locally who could help you link up with suitable groups or activities and get you some bereavement support too if that might help.
Announcement | Death of Sergeant Graham Saville
It is with great sadness that Nottinghamshire Police confirms the death of a serving officer in the line of duty.

My 97 yr old great uncle has passed away. He is a WWII veteran but there will be 4 of us at his funeral π’Itβs May 22nd, 130pm, Haltemprice Crematorium. Would be lovely if any veterans etc could come. Please share @PoppyLegion@VeteransUK_MOD@hull4heroes@hulllive@bbcburnsy
As usual today our armed forces and emergency services are on duty to make this event a success. We thank them and hope they remain safe today.

@JohnnyMercerUK@VeteransGovUK Hope this can be used to support the many small organisations who make a difference at grass roots level. We find many veterans wait a long time to get service from health, councils and larger charities.
@JohnnyMercerUK we became aware of this new alert scheme today. We're concerned that there could be quite a lot of people whose PTSD might be triggered by something like this. Can you do anything to bring that risk to the attention of the right people please?
Today is #RandomActsOfKindessDay . Seems a bit sad to us that this needs a special day. At Valkyrie this could be any day, but actually it's more like every day. You could help us to spread more kindness by donating anything we need for site or to run our programmes.
At Valkyrie we don't believe anyone should struggle alone with menopause issues. If you're affected or know someone who is, get in touch about our menopause support groups.
