Why Birmingham?

Because for many wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans, this is where their recovery began.

As part of the One Year To Go milestone for #InvictusGames Birmingham 2027, our Founding Patron, Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex and JJ Chalmers joined a special episode of Joe Marler Will See You Now, exploring recovery, friendship, mental fitness and the power of finding purpose after adversity.

This conversation explores many of the themes that sit at the heart of the Invictus Movement alongside some other questionable topics!

We're proud to announce that we are now a VALOUR-recognised centre, part of the Government's new nationwide veteran support network. If you're a veteran in the South West and need help with housing, health, employment or welfare, we're here for you. Visit https://t.co/UP4tLHCe2g

[Calvin Bailey MBE MP @CalvinBailey]

Veterans should be able to access support easily, wherever they are in the UK.

I’m proud that the first VALOUR-recognised centres are now opening, including RBVE in Aylesford, which I opened last week, helping turn that ambition into reality. 💪
