Dr Hywel Francis MP meets with the Royal British Legion
19th March 2013
Dr Hywel Francis Labour MP for Aberavon has attended a Royal British Legion event in Parliament dedicated to seeing some of the Legion’s work in his constituency.
Dr Francis said,
‘I was pleased to discuss with Phil Jones, the Legion Area Manager for Wales and Legion beneficiaries the changing face of Armed Forces welfare provision in the local community, and learn more about the Legion’s work developing Community Covenants locally.’
Dr Francis added,
‘I was delighted to support the Royal British Legion in the many forms of support they offer whether it be direct financial aid; benefits and money advice; adventure holidays in the UK for Armed Forces families who need a break; or helping an elderly or disabled veteran with a trusted handyman facility to help with odd-jobs in the home. These are just some of the many, many services the Legion offers to the Armed Forces community.’
‘In addition they help everyone from a child of a serving family needing an adventure break to a young entrepreneur needing advice and assistance.’
