Merthyr Valley Veterans have been successful in securing a grant for the next two years from Awards for All Wales.

The grant will ensure their peer support group continues to support veterans from across all Regiments and blue light services.

The group meets every Tuesday at Merthyr Labour Club from 10am until 12 for a cuppa, warm snack and support.

Thanks to Karen from VAMT for the help and support.
