March Armed Forces & Veterans Breakfast Club CIC

Back to Support

March Armed Forces & Veterans Breakfast Club CIC aims to provide safe, friendly and informal places for veterans to ‘return to the tribe’ - regain a sense of belonging and enjoy breakfast together in the company of other past and current members of the Armed Forces.

Dave talks about why he enjoys coming to the breakfast club:

What to expect

Armed Forces & Veteran’s Breakfast Clubs are open to any past and serving member of HM Forces and their immediate family members.

The Breakfast Club in March is held on the first Saturday of the month, from 9:30 onwards. The venue has a large room if you walk through the bar area, where the breakfast is set up, along with a coffee/tea/juice station and tables and chairs.

You’ll be warmly greeted by Jeff or another member of the club, and told where to pay for breakfast and how it works. People queue up to get plates of a hearty breakfast.

The club is well-attended and you will find plenty of people to chat with if you wish. They can also signpost you local support on offer.

A raffle is held if you wish to purchase tickets. Funds go towards things like group trips.

To find out more: ring the venue – Cassanos Restaurant, on 01354 652 309 – and they will pass on a message to Jeff Walters who will ring you back.

More information

The national Armed Forces & Veteran’s Breakfast Club provides an umbrella of support for all of the locally-run and organised clubs; the information here is for the one in March, though you can find clubs in other areas on the national website.

The Armed Forces & Veteran’s Breakfast Club aims to facilitate links between the local clubs and the main support agencies for veterans, to allow clubs to signpost veterans in need to support agencies when necessary. It is the formal face of the Clubs which allows them to talk to the MoD and other agencies from a common outlook and more.

It is free to join the club, there are no subscription or other fees and no commitments.

Attendees pay for their own breakfast but this is a small amount, with unlimited tea and coffee. However, if you need assistance with this please talk to Jeff.

Occasionally, trips are organised; funds raised from raffles and other sources are used to reduce costs.
