The VC Gallery

For my National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ) Digital Storytelling coursework, I covered a local charity, The VC Gallery, that helps veterans and the community in projects like The VC Gallery Dig for Victory 🪴 I captured all of these shots in this video during a visit to their gardening site at St Ishmael's and had a chat with their Founder, Barry John MBE, so I could find out more about what the charity does.

So it starts... The next big journey for The VC Gallery is looking at how to tackle the homeless veterans issue and Armed forces community within Pembrokeshire. We have been successful with getting a grant with the @armedforcescovfundtrust and The office of veterans affairs to map out a plan on our Pembroke Dock VC grounds with a view to build up to 12 houses for our Armed Forces veterans and service leavers. The VC has been heavily involved with supporting tenants throughout Pembrokeshire for over 9 years and we hope that with correct planning and development over the next few years we can put into place a unique support method with housing in Pembrokeshire that will be something to be proud of. Working with key partners such as @penfroconsultancy and Pembrokshire Design LTD we hope that we can continue to support Pembrokeshire and the Armed Forces with safe and secure housing options in the future.

After another year of bringing together veterans and the community within Pembrokeshire we want to say thanks to our amazing staff, Barry, Steph, Chris, Josh, Shane, Kev, Dan, Ange, Nick,Dean and Ann who along with incredible volunteers make the VC a brilliant charity to be involved with. Here’s to 2024 being Happy and Healthy for all. ❤️
