Breakfast with Heroes
In November, Trustee Sam Phillips invited us for breakfast at the Bury Veterans Hub Café. Just ahead of Remembrance Sunday, it seemed particularly poignant to support this incredible charity that offers help and support to veterans and their families on everything from financial issues to mental health, and crucially, a warm and friendly place to meet, chat and banter.
Loki was there with us to testify first hand that the breakfast was top quality – after polishing off a plate of sausages he then set to work on stealing mine as well!
This was a great morning and we were very grateful to Sam, who along with Shirley Simmons and Barry Phillips gave us the chance to talk to the veterans about the benefits of walking with us in the countryside. Our Therapy Husky service was also of interest for those who would benefit more from a home visit.
