We are proud today to have veterans from the RAF joining us at HRI this morning as we start the celebrations towards Armed Forces Day on Saturday.

Our Trust is proud of its Armed Forces Accreditation and we will be celebrating all week and raising a flag on Friday. The RAFA fundraising stall will be there on Wednesday and Thursday too.

The day is so the country can show its appreciation for everyone in the Armed Forces past or present, regulars or reserves.

Here at CHFT we have many colleagues with armed forces links and we try to ensure we offer them and all our patients and families with armed forces links all our support.
