As always, I would prefer to raise a glass with you rather than to you.

Mental Health Awareness Week is a moment to check in, with ourselves and with each other.

For some veterans, the impact of service can continue long after they leave the Armed Forces. It can affect sleep, relationships and everyday life.

But with the right support, things can change.

At Combat Stress, we help veterans take steps forward and move towards recovery.

If you’re finding things difficult, or you’re worried about someone else, support is available, you can call the Combat Stress Helpline on 0800 138 1619 for specialist support, or Samaritans on 116 123 for confidential emotional support at any time.

If you feel you’re in a mental health emergency or dangerous situation, please call 999 for immediate support.

You don’t have to face it alone.

What an emotional end to our week of pedaloing.
We made it to Teddington,
We made our goal,
and what a game!
All square as we enter the last ten minutes, only for the Navy to ruck and maul across the line for a final try.

I don't mind admitting, today was a battle. Didn't matter which way we were going, it was up-wind.
