Oldham Armed Forces and Veterans Breakfast Clubs at the Royal Garden Party

Earlier this month, the Admin Team from the Oldham Armed Forces Breakfast Club attended this year’s Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace. I hope you all had an amazing day.

At the event, they met Andrew Spence and Maria Hanley who received an invite from the Lord Lieutenant of Manchester as a thank you for their hard work in bring back a World War One memorial to Royton which had been sold. This now hangs in Royton Library along with an history folder detailing all those on the memorial.

The dedicated work you do in the breakfast clubs to foster connections, offer support and provide a welcoming & safe space is commendable. We thank you and the Royton Branch of the Royal British Legion for all the work you do to support those who have given so much for our country to defend peace, democracy and freedom. We owe a debt to all of you.
