Since forming in 2018, Littlehampton Armed Forces & Veterans Breakfast Club have evolved from a simple breakfast club and have expanded with a sister site in Bognor Regis and Arundel too.
On the face of it, they still have the core principle of breakfast, brew, and banter, but behind closed doors they offer support discreetly, in addition to the brew and banter, by attempting to resolve long-term issues through peer support, direct welfare assistance for short-term issues and signpost for longer-term solutions. They encourage all who need support to embrace the availability of help and to let LAFVBC lead them to what is needed.

Several of their volunteer team have become Armed Forces Champions through the Armed Forces network operated by the NHS and they are always keen to invite fresh ideas to enhance what they can do to assist those in need.
They make only one promise, and that is that they will always try their best to help someone whatever their issue. If they are unable to help directly, then they find someone who can.
