A NEW Armed Forces and Veterans Breakfast Club (AFVBC) is being launched on the Isle of Wight.
The launch event will take place at The Fountain Inn, on High Street, Cowes, on Tuesday, May 26, from 9.30am to 11.30am.
Netley AFVBC is helping to bring the initiative to the town, with hopes it will become a regular monthly gathering.
The aim is to provide a friendly environment where those connected to the armed forces can meet others with similar experiences, share stories, and rebuild a sense of camaraderie, in a relaxed and supportive setting.

The breakfast club is open to veterans, current members of the Army, Royal Navy, RAF, Reserves and Merchant Navy, as well as their families.
A full English breakfast will be available, with discounts for Blue Light and Defence Discount Card holders.
Organisers say no booking is required and everyone is welcome.
The Cowes club is expected to run on the fourth Tuesday of each month.
The Cowes launch follows the success of the Isle of Wight AFVBC already running in Ryde.
The group meets on the first Sunday of each month at Aspire Ryde, in Trinity Buildings on Dover Street, between 10am and 12pm.
