The Tommy Atkins Centre Tommy Atkins Centre December Here's wishing all our veteran community a wonderful Christmas and New Year festivities. As the weather grows colder over the winter months a quick reminder to you all to call on that elderly neighbour or friend who may be living alone near to you. A brief visit every day to make sure they are okay, and taking time to share a few words with them to brighten up their day goes a long way to making them feel less alone. Perhaps you and your family could offer to run a few errands for them or maybe take a hot meal around occasionally. Your kindness will be appreciated by most.
