Tuesday 7 July
Join us on Tuesday 7 July for a hosted discovery afternoon as part of our centenary celebrations in Richmond, from 12:30 to 2pm.
Our fully hosted discovery afternoons are perfect for individual guests and small groups. Hear the story of our unique community of veterans and families over 100 years, and the role they have played in building and maintaining the Remembrance tradition. You can get hands-on making poppies, enjoy delicious cakes and hot drinks and browse unique gifts.
Today, our charity helps hundreds of members of the Armed Forces community on the path to employment across England and Wales. Funds raised through our visitor centre go towards our employment support, helping veterans and families to become healthier, more independent, more resilient and better connected.
Tickets cost £15 per person. Please book in advance using the link below.
