Veterans Can… and Save A Warrior UK

Earlier this year SAWUK placed an application to be considered in the running for a grant of £5000. Which will place 2 men through our programme.

Veterans Can holds a very special place in the heart of Co-Founder Tom Burgess, more on that later on in the article.

Here’s our write up of Veterans Can.

Special thanks to Garrath Williams. A good egg and one who is always keen to find a better way to do things. When I asked him for some advice about setting up a charity in the UK to serve veterans, in front of maybe 200 people he dropped this nugget:

“Bloody well do what you say you’re gonna do!”

So here we are. Delivering.

Thanks for the motivational quote of the decade Garrath.
