Wisbech Armed Forces Community & Friends Drop In Launched

It was a chance meeting between Armed Forces Covenant Partnership Coordinator, Tommy Kelly and Salvation Army Debt Advisor and former Royal Anglian, Jon Pearce, that led to the development of the Wisbech Armed Forces Community & Friends Drop In.

It was noted that although Wisbech already offers great support to members of the Armed Forces Community through the Armed Forces and Veterans Breakfast Club, RAFA Club/Branch , initiatives at the Fenland Orchards Project, Wisbech Community Farm and Wisbech Town Council, there was still room to add something during the week.

The Salvation Army, John Thompson Rd, Wisbech PE13 2NF, seemed perfect as it has a wonderful community space, kitchen and very helpful staff and volunteers who were only too happy to support the group to form.

A number of meetings have taken place and the group have developed a Facebook group
