Information<br />
A word from the Ed<br />
After months of waiting, it’s<br />
finally here. <strong>The</strong> start of the<br />
MSA Dunlop BTCC 2018. What,<br />
may you ask, has this got to do<br />
with a veterans magazine. Well,<br />
the magazines Patron, Mr Matt<br />
Neal just happens to be the most<br />
prolific driver on the circuit.<br />
Over 600 races to his name<br />
including three championship<br />
titles. And to top it all off, hr is<br />
driving one hell of a machine this<br />
year. <strong>The</strong> Halfords Yuasa Honda<br />
Civic R. Matt’s team mate is Dan<br />
Cammish, a two times winner of<br />
the Porsche Carrera Cup. But I<br />
expect you already know all of<br />
this due to the article in the centre<br />
of the mag. You may also have<br />
read about the successes of the<br />
Tommy Atkins Centre in<br />
Worcester over the past few<br />
weeks. Jane and the gang had a<br />
cracking Open Day this week.<br />
Playing host to SSAFA, the RBL,<br />
Blind Veterans, DMWS, Combat<br />
Stress, Age Concern but the icing<br />
on the cake was being graced by<br />
the centre Patron and War Poppy<br />
Artist, Jacqueline Hurley and her<br />
partner Steve. <strong>The</strong> centre was<br />
truly blessed by Jacquelines<br />
incredible artwork which was<br />
very proudly displayed. What a<br />
brilliant sight. Plenty of veterans<br />
and local office dignitaries<br />
attended the day with some great<br />
feedback from everyone. Well,<br />
by the time you all read the May<br />
edition, I will have marched over<br />
the Pen y Fan and Jane would<br />
have been chucked out of an<br />
aeroplane for the Airborne<br />
Challenge. Hopefully our efforts<br />
will bring lots of pennies to the<br />
centre. <strong>The</strong>re is still time to<br />
sponsor one or both of us, aAny<br />
sponsorship or donations will be<br />
gratefully recieved and 100% of<br />
the funds will go directly to the<br />
centre. Well, that’s just about it<br />
for this months Editors blog.<br />
Please get in touch if you need<br />
any assistance or further<br />
information on anything in the<br />
magazine. See you all soon. Px<br />
