Sharing on behalf of Shaun Pascoe and the team at Lest We Forget Association.

This is a fantastic opportunity for serving personnel, veterans, and their families to enjoy a well-deserved break in Cornwall -completely free of charge.

Lest We Forget have some exciting projects underway, including the development of housing and the recent purchase of an 85-acre farm. Watch this space!

One of their latest achievements is the purchase and renovation of two beautiful guest houses in Falmouth, Cornwall, which have been combined into a dedicated respite and holiday facility called The RV.

Located just minutes from the beach and the town centre, The RV offers:
- 17 double en-suite rooms
- 4 two-bedroom apartments
- 1 fully accessible apartment
- Help-yourself breakfast included

The respite breaks are available free of charge to serving and former Armed Forces personnel.

Booking couldn't be simpler, just email: [email protected]

There are no lengthy forms, no need to explain why you'd like a break, and no catch. You've served, you've earned it.

Please share this with anyone in the Armed Forces community who could benefit from some time to rest and recharge.
