February Edition
Veterans of all ages have been gathering regularly to offer support and camaraderie over breakfast with Saxveterans Breakfast Club. So, if you are ex-forces why not go along to this rapidly growing group? You don’t need to be from Saxmundham to get involved. See page 7 for more details of this organisation, which is mutually beneficial for people of all ages and experience I’m sure.
2026 marks 200 years of Aldeburgh RNLI. What a wonderful job the volunteers do, both on and offshore, ably supported by high tech equipment, safety wear and modern communication. Seeing the old photos on page 5 brought home to me how even more treacherous it must have been in days gone by when they headed out, probably with no training other than experience of the sea, in horrendous weather, in a timber vessel, without adequate bouyancy aids, radios etc. Brave individuals indeed…
The Chairman of Aldeburgh’s Good Neighbour Scheme (AGNES), has been in touch so if you need assistance with services such as transport or shopping please see page 8. Volunteers will do their best to help and if they can’t, will put you in touch with someone who can. A great free service which will not only assist you but connect you with a friendly face! Similarly, if you would like to be that friendly face and volunteer your services do get in touch.
