Together for Christmas Initiative

The Royal British Legion’s direction General, Charles Byrne, issued a statement on the special event. The well-being of the community is of the utmost importance to the organization. According to People magazine, Byrne said, “The Legion is not only here for older veterans, but all ages of the Armed Forces community. As the Monarch and next three generations, Her Majesty and Their Royal Highnesses represent a cross-section of those supported by the Legion, from the children of service personnel, to Second World War veterans,”

He added that the holidays can be a period when people’s problems and fears are made worse by money concerns. It can make individuals feel lonely and isolated. By providing a layer of support, the charity hopes to make a difference in the community’s well-being.
