Bar s support for veterans on Royal British Legion s Centenary

Evesham’s Valkyrie bar opened two days early to celebrate the centenary of the Royal British Legion (RBL), a charity that helps former service members. Men from nearly every branch were joined by the Mayor of Evesham, Sue Amor, to toast the occasion. The day marked one hundred years since the charity’s founding on May 15 1921. Service members have been helped to find housing and jobs, as well as being provided with mental health services or, simply, someone to talk to.  Steve Richford, who owns the Valkyrie bar along with his partner, Katrina Edwards, is a veteran of the Seventh Parachute Regiment, Royal Horse Artillery.
