Northern Ireland: From Basra to Helmand Veterans Event - Thursday 25th September

 
Calling All Iraq & Afghanistan Veterans

Following the success of last year’s From Basra to Helmand event, the Northern Ireland Veteran Commissioner’s Office is proud to announce another bespoke gathering specifically for veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan campaigns.

This event aims to bring together like-minded veterans from this era, many of whom are hard to reach or may feel underrepresented in the wider veteran community.

Location: Belfast City Hall
Date: Thursday, 25th September
Time: Doors open at 6:30pm for a 7:00pm start
Register here: https://www.nivco.co.uk/op-telic-and-op-herrick/

Spaces are limited to 100 veterans due to venue capacity. Once full, additional registrations will be placed on a reserve list in case spots become available.

We hope you’ll join us for what promises to be a meaningful evening of connection, conversation, and shared memories.
