We have seen a few other charities and organisations detailing their Christmas closures. We know Christmas and New Year can be a difficult time for some people, so we'll be keeping an eye on our messages in case people need us.

Today some of our veterans had an away day to @PirateGolfHull followed by a carvery lunch which turned into a bit of a food challenge! We had a great time. If you're interested in joining us in the future drop us a message.

Are you a carer, supporter, partner or family member of a veteran who has difficulties with physical or mental health? Why not take some time out for yourself, and join our forthcoming carer's support group.

As usual today our armed forces and emergency services are on duty to make this event a success. We thank them and hope they remain safe today. #GodSaveTheKing

@JohnnyMercerUK we became aware of this new alert scheme today. We're concerned that there could be quite a lot of people whose PTSD might be triggered by something like this. Can you do anything to bring that risk to the attention of the right people please?

Today is #RandomActsOfKindessDay . Seems a bit sad to us that this needs a special day. At Valkyrie this could be any day, but actually it's more like every day. You could help us to spread more kindness by donating anything we need for site or to run our programmes.

Next veterans event is 11th Feb. If you are a veteran in need of some support message us to find out about joining.

@KCOMhome hi, we're trying to apply for one of your community grants but every time we submit the online form we get an error message. Please can you tell us who to contact for help? Thankyou

Quick reminder that we're holding a veterans day at our base camp in Keelby, Lincolnshire tomorrow (28th) 1000-1600. Free to attend for veterans struggling with mental or physical health, addictions, transition or practical problems. Message for details.

We'll be holding a Veterans Event on 28th Dec 1000-1600 for any veterans feeling lonely or just had enough Christmas. We'll be checking messages throughout the Christmas period to offer support to anyone who needs it or wants location to visit on 28th.
Thanks to funding from @VeteransFdn we will be continuing to run our respite events for veterans right through winter. Join the Valkyrie family for axe throwing, wood crafts and, most importantly, laughs and support.
Today we take the time to pay our respects to Her Majesty. Your Team Valkyrie are, however, still available to support any veterans who need us.
