COVID Testing at Merryhue Farm
Happy New Year
2020 was a hard year for everybody. COVID restrictions made it a particularly challenging year, and we understand that moving into 2021 isn't going to make that magically disappear. However, we believe that there is a light emerging at the end of the tunnel. We hope that this year will make up for the previous!
The farm is still observing proper COVID safety protocols, so please be aware of the rules if and when they arise. But no matter what, the team at Together We Can Succeed will strive to ensure you get the most from our wonderful facilities.
We wish you a Happy New Year. We'll see you on the farm!

Christmas Caring Fundraiser
This Christmas is going to be very different for many of us, but imagine having no close family or friends to support you, nothing to look forward to. Battling On's Caring Communities appeal aims to bring a little bit of joy and hope to those most vulnerable within our communities who have suffered the most in this pandemic from social isolation and loneliness. This appeal will reach out to those living with life limiting illnesses and disabilities and the elderly.
Battling On is a multi-award winning organisation that provides wrap around care, support and training to veterans through a number of innovative programmes. Much of the work Battling On does is designed to utilise the skills of veterans to support those in need within local communities. This year our veterans and volunteers will be mobilised to distribute Christmas food parcels and gift boxes to bring a little bit of happiness to those in need.

SOLDIERING ON AWARDS 2018
On Friday 20th April we attended the Soldiering On Awards 2018 in London. It was a truly inspiring evening with many people in the room who devote their lives to making things better for other people.
Battling On was a finalist in the Forces in Mind Trust Working Together Award. We also have a close association with a finalist in the NetApp Family Values Award, where The Connell Family was nominated for their unstinting support of Battling On. Tony and Liz Connell were at the awards representing the family, and were delighted and overwhelmed to be announced as the winners.
