Welcome to the Cumbria Veterans Directory Group, which has been setup in conjunction with a nationwide network of groups.

Each Group will be run by Admins and Veterans Support Coordinators from the area, and whilst it is beneficial to have the member base living in the County, it is not completely essential, as some people might also choose to support areas where they were born or once lived, or still have family connections with.

The group will though be used for County news and issues, and not just filled with shared Military posts, which most groups seem to have. Members who join the site, which is an open group, can be from a variety of people, that are currently serving members of the armed forces and family, ex-services and family, people that work in support network organisations, and friends and supporters of the Armed Forces Community. The membership credentials are not so strictly military based, as the group is for the support mechanisms, not confidential discussions.

Veterans from across Cumbria come together in this Facebook group to socialize, share news and find support.
