Support Offered
The Glider Pilot Regiment Society supports 16 veteran Glider Pilots from WWII onwards, maintaining as little or as much contact and support as requested or needed. We have for many years had a befriending scheme that keeps in regular contact via phone/email and letters from the trustees, and all our veterans appreciate and look forward to the contact. As well as providing friendship and society updates, we can offer any non-medical support that our veterans or their carers may need.
