VE Day 80 - Hold a Brew and Bake for Combat Stress

 

This year marks the 80th anniversary of VE Day, and Combat Stress would very much appreciate your help celebrating it with a Brew and Bake Coffee Morning for Combat Stress - a great way to bring people together over coffee and cake while raising funds for veterans’ mental health.


Combat Stress’ records show that they supported veterans from the Second World War right up until 2016.  But it’s not just Second War World veterans who turned to them for help. In the 80 years since VE Day, Combat Stress has supported thousands of former military personnel who’ve experienced military trauma. They continue to support those who served, focusing on those with complex mental health issues as a result of military trauma. They also have a Helpline open 24/365 which can be accessed by serving personnel and their families.  

 

The official Brew and Bake day is Thursday 8 May 2025 – VE Day, but events can be held on any date that suits. Every pound raised will help us provide our life-changing mental health treatment to veterans today.
