The Sir Oswald Stoll Foundation - support for Veterans since 1917
ANNUAL DINNER - THE CAVALRY & GUARDS CLUB THURSDAY 17 SEPTEMBER 2009
It is our pleasure to invite you to the Sir Oswald Stoll Foundation's Annual Dinner & Auction on Thursday 17 September at The Cavalry & Guards Club, Piccadilly.
Now in its fourth year, this event provides a wonderful opportunity for you to learn more about the Foundation and show your support for the many vulnerable and disabled ex-Servicemen and women to whom we provide housing. We would be thrilled if you were able to join us.
The event will begin at 1900 with drinks in the Club's Waterloo and Peninsular rooms, followed by dinner in the venue's sumptuous Coffee Room. This will also provide the backdrop for our guest speaker, photographic exhibition and charity auction. Carriages will be at 2330.
Tickets for the Annual Dinner are £90, including all drinks on the night; they can be purchased on an individual basis or in a table of 10 or 12. To reserve your ticket(s) please contact katie.truss@oswaldstoll.org.uk or telephone 020 7381 7488.
About the Foundation
The Sir Oswald Stoll Foundation provides supported housing to hundreds of vulnerable and disabled ex-Servicemen and women, many of whom come from a homeless background. Yet there is much more to do:
* Recent research has shown that on any given night there are 1,100 homeless Veterans in London alone
* Veterans are more susceptible to mental ill health than the rest of the population; this problem will only get worse as troops return from Iraq and Afghanistan
* Many ex-Service people, particularly elderly Veterans, are lonely, isolated and suffer depression
WE BELIEVE OUR VETERANS DESERVE BETTER THAN THIS and we are therefore committed to building and sustaining communities within which Veterans can live positively and healthily. Through your attendance at the Foundation's Annual Dinner, you will help us to provide additional supported housing to future generations of vulnerable and disabled Veterans.
Thank you for your support.
