We were heard! Thank you so much to our President and Vice Presidents for their unstinting support. Most of all, thanks to the members who shared their very moving stories with dignity.

Thankfully, we have great charities for support, but we need to be recognised by the MOD and Government too.

Who can believe that War Widows are still fighting for this.The Bereaved Families cohort are often the forgotten ones…we have an Office for Veterans Affairs, who try, but we are not Veterans - who looks out for us?

We're honoured to have opened our annual #FieldofRemembrance this morning. Over 300 #Remembrance plots have been laid in honour of those who've fallen.
#WeRememberThem
Today we will open the Field of Remembrance outside in the grounds of Westminster Abbey.
Now in its 95th year, the Field is a poignant tribute to the fallen of the First and Second World Wars and more recent conflicts.

How can you when you deny @armywidows & many more the ex gratia payment that was promised to them in relation to pensions? This is a moral obligation & in denying it you are betraying those who you are using for PR “remembering” – at Sutton, London

Delighted to advise we received confirmation from MOD in the last few minutes that the launch of the Recognition Payment Application Process will be officially announced later today. Those of you who have already registered should receive your forms in the post in due course.
