Trafford Veterans CIC

Take care in this extreme heat!

Meet our amazing volunteer Norma, showing you're never too old to have fun. Today our fundraising stall is at Sale Festival. We are here till 4 if you would like to come and say hello.

Did you know we have 2 veterans vans?

The transit on the right is our trusty workhorse. It's helped people move house and carries a lot of our kit around!

The one on the left is our mobile hub we take to events. It has a small kitchen in the back to brew up and a seating area!

Today’s Breakfast Club had a slightly different feel as we welcomed Duncan and his team from Bounce Back Food, Altrincham, who cooked an amazing breakfast for everyone. It was a busy morning with nearly 70 people attending, including Chris Sykes Greater Manchester Police and Jim Jones, and fellow veterans visiting from the Crewe and Rossendale Breakfast Clubs and Neil from Costco with his information table.

We were treated to a fantastic performance by the North West Veterans Corps of Drums. which added something really special to the event. Our usual two raffles brought plenty of laughs and friendly banter, as always.

A huge thank you goes out to all our Volunteers — without you, there simply is no us.

Today we took delivery of our new sign that is going up in Manchester Equestrian centre! Can't wait to see it put up! Huge thanks Paul Fairclough for designing and sourcing it for us :)

Our next breakfast is Saturday 20th June. We will be joined by Costco who are having a table to talk about membership and the Northwest Veterans Corps of Drums will put on a short display at 1100. Why not join in!

Working in partnership with FareShare Greater Manchester, for the past 4 years we have delivered a Friday hub for veterans and the local uniformed services community. In 2025, we shifted 2054Kg of food, purchased from their centre at Smithfield market.

2054Kg is the approximate weight of 82 filled Army Bergens!
