I have just received information about the Heroes Return Project.
Ten million pounds is being made available from the National Lottery to enable UK residents who saw active service or who were involved with the British and Allied Armed Forces in World War Two to apply for grants so that they can revisit the theatre of war they were involved in.
The amount granted would depend on which theatre of war you wish to visit and whether you intend to take a partner and or carer.
If you are interested you should contact the Veterans Agency on telephone number 0800 169 2277 who will take your details and pass them on to the national Lottery.
You will then receive an application form and information pack so that you can apply for a grant.
If you need any more information or advice contact the Veterans Agency who also have information about tours that have been organised to battlefield areas by veterans organisations.
