G4V September Newsletter
Tue, 8 Oct 2024
Guitars for Veterans is a Wales wide charitable organisation supporting Military Veterans, Families and Friends to find mental wellness through music. Through grant funding and public donation we provide loan acoustic guitars with everything a member needs to start on thier musical journey. We provide online tutorials through youtube and safe friendly venues for group sessions on a weekly basis so our members can learn together in a supported environment. This is about learning a skill for a whole lifetime that can help members to meet likeminded people, to use a guitar to generate wellbeing in times of stress and to have fun with friends and family.
