Sunderland AFC Mark One-Year Anniversary Of Launch Of First Football Armed Forces Veterans Breakfast Club With Remembrance Theme

We begin our round up of events over November and December, rounding off 2023 with a look ahead to the first anniversary of an important Armed Forces Veterans Breakfast Club in the north east region.

Sunderland AFC became the first football club to host an Armed Forces Veterans Breakfast Club in November 2022, hosting the well known club to help end social isolation in their Black Cats Bar at the Stadium of Light.

Now after a hugely successful year of Breakfast Clubs in both the Black Cats Bar and Quinn’s Bar at the Stadium, which has included an array of talks and also coincided with the first National Armed Forces and Emergency Services Event in April, the club will mark their first anniversary with a poignant Remembrance theme and everyone from the forces and wider forces communities are invited to attend.

The Remembrance breakfast club takes place on Wednesday November 8 from 0900 in Quinn’s Bar via the Main Entrance of the Stadium of Light.
