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.

Lyneham: New Little Lights faith-filled fun for 0-5 yr olds in MOD Lyneham Community Centre

 

Welcome to Little Lights!

Each session will last an hour and begins with lively songs and rhymes to get everyone joining in, followed by a short and engaging Bible story with the help of pictures, props, or actions.

After the story, children can take part in a fun craft, giving them a chance to be creative and explore the story in their own way. The session finishes with snacks for the children and refreshments for the adults, plus free time to chat and get to know one another!

Little Lights provides a relaxed and friendly environment where families can explore & grow in faith together while little ones learn, play, and thrive. Whether you’re a family with lots of faith, no faith or are somewhere in-between, everyone is welcome.

The group meets at MOD Lyneham Community Centre, Calne Rd, Lyneham, Chippenham SN15 4XX at 10am on:
  • Friday 26th September
  • Friday 10th October
  • Friday 24th October
