As the Festive Season is upon us, we reflect back on 2024 and see that as an Association, we have moved forward toward new beginnings.

A new look Committee is now bedding in, and 2025 is looking extremely exciting, with 2 major events taking place for us to gather and commemorate both the Anniversaries of the end of World War 2 in Europe and the formation of TSW.

It’s also a poignant time of year for reflection and, in particular, to remember those friends and comrades who have sadly passed away this year. I’m sure we will all take the opportunity to reflect on their Service and memory.

On behalf of the Association, I wish you all, whether veteran, currently serving at home or overseas, your  family and friends, a safe and happy Christmas and a healthy and prosperous 2025 !!
