The Tommy Atkins Centre Tommy Atkins Centre June Hello from us here at the Tommy Atkins centre. The sunshine is really belting through the windows today, and it’s lovely to see some new faces attending our Peer Support group meeting with Simon West from Combat Stress. We’ve had a fairly busy this month so far, quite a few people booked onto different courses and Lisa our psychotherapist has a steady stream of veterans she is currently working with, though she is currently on a well deserved break for a week or two. No doubt she will be very busy again when she returns. It was an incredible honour to have Matt Neal and Ben Durrell from Team Dynamics here earlier this month. Two incredibly supportive guys, finding out all about the work we’re doing with veterans. We even got to have a drink with them later in the afternoon, which is always a lovely way to round off a meeting. If you’re ever in the area, feel free to call in for a chat. We’re open Tuesdays and Thursdays 0930-1530 at 26 Sansome Walk Worcester. The kettle is always on ready for a brew. Enjoy the fantastic weather while it’s here. Talk again soon.

BTCC Driver & SBT Patron, Matt Neal Takes Time Out To Visit The Tommy Atkins Centre What a complete pleasure to welcome the SBT Patron and 3 x British Touring Car Champion, Matt Neal to the centre in Worcester. Despite Matt’s incredibly hectic life, his support for veterans is second to none. Matt, currently lying 3rd in this years championship was treated to a guided tour of the centre followed by a presentation by the SBT editor on the truth behind the in’s and out’s of how the centre makes the difference to so many. Matt was accompanied by Team Dynamics Marketing and Sponsorship Manager, Ben Durrell who also works very closely with the magazine. Ben is currently looking into the possibility of getting Team Dynamics Motorsport, Matt’s team, signed up to the Armed Forces Covenant. This would be a first for the world of motor sport and just maybe, the start of a very welcome trend. Photo: Jakob Ebrey | 14 www.sandbagtimes.co.uk
