We have a number of activities to promote comradeship and tackle social exclusion including weekly social clubs, bacon roll mornings, frequent music mornings, cinema nights and trips out.
Wednesdays
Wednesday is the D-Day club for our older veterans, they meet in the British Legion near the centre. There are activities like crafting, cooking, quizzes and bingo all accompanied by the traditional banter.
Thursdays
Weekly walks take place every Thursday, generally around the Dalkeith area. They commence at 11am leaving from the centre.
Fridays
On Friday mornings there are the bacon roll mornings, who doesn’t like a free bacon roll? Or sausage, or black pudding, just no doublers (that means you Dave Devenney).
Excursions
We have a timetable of upcoming events prepared for Veterans and their families.
Previous events include trips up the Forth on RIBS, visits to various museums and an Edinburgh based brewery, to name a few.
