Welcome to What’s on in My Community, your place to discover activities and events for the Armed Forces community across the UK. From Help for Heroes cafes and social groups to sports sessions, volunteering and special events, you'll find a growing range of opportunities to connect with your community, get involved and enjoy time with fellow veterans and their families.
Whether you're looking to meet new people, rediscover a hobby or try something new, we hope you'll find something that interests you. If there's a Community Builder in your area, you may also have the chance to meet them, connect with local supporters and find out what's happening near you.
Browse national and online opportunities and, if something catches your eye, simply register your interest. We'll send you the details and registration information closer to the event.
Explore the activities and events happening in your area and find opportunities that feel right for you. You can register your interest to receive a reminder before the event, but there's no need to book. Just come along, say hello and get involved as much or as little as you'd like.
We don't have a location for you yet, so we can't show you what's happening nearby.
