Story

I am raising money for the Army Widows Association as it will be my 60th birthday on the 8th of May and because of covid 19 my plans have had to be cancelled. What I would wish for is to have my husband, my mum and dad, my two brothers, my sister and my grandson Byron back but I know that is the impossible dream, so I would like instead of buying me gifts could you please donate to The Army Widows Association. Smudge died while in service and I joined the AWA where I have made true life long friends. I laugh a lot and I also have tears at times but without this group of special ladies I could be a lot worse. Please stay safe, Xxx

The Army Widows' Association was formed by a group of Army widows in 2004.It aims to offer support and friendship to those who have sadly lost their husband/wife or recognised partner at any stage of their bereavement through mutual empathy, experiences and by signposting new members to other sources of help at such a difficult time in their lives. The AWA offers its support to all widows bereaved since 1981, death can have been as a result of many reasons: illness, RTA, conflict, suicide, training accidents. We hold an annual weekend and other events where widows can meet up, meet others who are in the same situation as themselves, find out lots of information, raise issues and are developing a network of smaller Regional meetings to improve our support.
