Moving on....

Sgt M Williams-Thomas said farewell and relinquished his duties on the Rothiemurchus lodge committee, as he moves onto a new post. He will be greatly missed by all. Not only was he heavily involved with the Rothiemurchus lodge committee, he was a driving force behind the yearly Rothiemurchus Challenge, an event that takes place in the autumn.  We all hope Merv well in his new position.

As a parting gift Merv presented George, the lodge manager with a glass Rothiemurchus Challenge trophy. We look forward to Sgt R Gorman taking over on the committee as the Royal Navy repersentive. 

New adaptive suite opened

On Thursday 20 April 17, we gathered to witness the opening of 'The Royal British Legion Suite' by Col (Ret) Mark Bibbey RM, the CEO of Poppy Scotland. A number of other personalities were in attendence from other charitable organisations, including Help for Heroes and Veterans First Point. We also had the chance to see an RAF Tyhoon fly past at close quarters.
