Army HIVE Christmas and New Year Closures

The majority of Army HIVEs will be closed after duties on Fri 19 Dec 25 and will reopen on Mon 5 Jan 26. There may be localised variations to these dates for individual HIVEs.

Army HIVE HQ is also closed during the festive fortnight, so any enquiries submitted via the ‘If you need further information’ MS Forms function on our UK, Cyprus or Overseas blogs will be answered when we return in the New Year.

We will periodically cover private messages on our Army HIVE Facebook platform (and X/Instagram where possible) whilst we are closed. However, this will not be 24/7 and should not be relied upon for anything that requires an urgent response.

To support our customers with more immediate requirements however, the Army HIVE HQ email will provide a comprehensive out of office autoreply, detailing points of contact that are either 24/7, emergency providers, or open over the festive leave fortnight. To receive this autoreply, please email:
RC-Pers-HIVEComms-0Mailbox@mod.gov.uk

Individual HIVEs will also provide localised contact details for Christmas and New Year cover wherever possible in their automated replies. Therefore, if you email your closest HIVE, which you can find on HIVE’s page on the Army website, their autoreply may be of additional assistance.

Army HIVE wishes all of its Service community customers, and our internal and external stakeholders, a very happy Christmas and New Year. We look forward to continuing our support and engagement in 2026.

Hereford: Young Cart Shed courses for 14 - 18 and 18 - 25 year olds

Are you aged between 14 and 25? Are you struggling with anxiety, low mood, trauma or grief, social isolation, low self-esteem, lack of confidence, issues at school or college, relationship problems or neurodivergence?

If you are experiencing any of these challenges, we have places available on our Young Cart Shed programmes. 'Into the Woods' is for 14 to 18 year olds and takes place on a Tuesday from 10am to 2pm, and ‘Through the Woods’ is for 18 to 25 year olds and takes place on a Wednesday from 10am to 3pm. You can come for either a six-week or twelve-week course.

Young Cart Shed sessions are currently fully funded (which means you don't need to pay anything), subject to availability. For more information and to apply please click here.
