New workshops offer help to veterans over 50

A SERIES of workshops have been launched to help veterans affected by loneliness, bad health and housing issues.

Age UK Yorkshire and the Humber have joined with Future Years, the region’s forum on ageing, to help tackle emotional and practical issues to enable good health of veterans in the region.

The first session, on June 8 at St Peters Parish Church in Harrogate, will include discussion on local charities and volunteering.

To be eligible, you must be a veteran aged over 50 and live in Yorkshire and Humber. Call 07769 933010 to secure a place.
