The National Lottery Community Fund

Dear Friends,

We’re thrilled to share some amazing news with you. This week, Mental Fortitude secured £12,700 in funding from the National Lottery Community Fund—a tremendous boost that will directly strengthen our veteran-led outreach and leathercraft workshops.

Over the past few months, we’ve actively networked, submitted grant applications, and built meaningful connections—all with your support and encouragement. Thanks to these collective efforts, we’re now better equipped to expand our impact and reach even more veterans across our communities.

As always, we’re incredibly grateful for your belief in our mission. Your ongoing support empowers us to create safe, creative spaces where veterans can thrive.

More updates are coming soon—but for now, we celebrate this milestone together.

Warm regards, Nick Mental Fortitude CIC “Stronger Together”
