Len has always supported me as an author, and yesterday helped me track down some WW2 information. His followers also gave a great input. 100% five-stars.

Richard I really enjoy reading your books which gives me a break from all the research. The help with the WW2 information also did the same and gave us a small break from the intensive world of supporting armed forces veterans, their families and dependants with their many issues. PS I am looking forward to the next book.... My thanks also goes out to the Forces Online supporters than engaged in the support.
Forces online moved a veteran
Yesterday Forces online moved me and my kit from Swindon to Oxford
.No charge and shared the heavy lifting. They too alot of the stress away and that is a godsend. They gave me some advice on how to get set up and pointed me to a local veterans group.Also they said they eould come here to help at any stage if Ineeded them to
.This is the practical down to earth help that I needed. Well met and Thanks.

Made contact with Len to get a phone for a homeless veteran to enable him to claim benefits . They processed the application the same day and the phone arrived in 2 days . I am so grateful for the support

Thank you we have done quite a few. They must be ordered through an agency at https://www.veteranshardship.uk/our-services/ - Helping veterans, their families and dependents wherever we can.
Saved my life
I got in touch with Len at Forces online due to a breakdown in my relationship and a mental health crisis which led to loss of career and accommodation.
That day for short term purposes the charity provided me with emergency hotel accommodation and funds to help with food.
In the background Len was working on re housing referrals and by the Tuesday I was re housed in safe supported living for veterans.
This help and assistance has enabled me to stable myself and rebuild my life.
If it wasn’t for Len and the hard work the staff put in over that weekend I have absolutely no idea where I would be now.
Thank you!
