At last night’s club meeting various charities were considered for “headline” status at Overlord 2011. A large majority were in favour of The Royal British Legion to be the beneficiaries of our disposable surplus …
SOE is a thriving club based in the Solent area (Southampton/Portsmouth/Petersfield) and beyond that caters for the military collector, their family and friends.
Activities include organised trips to shows, military sites and museums, meals out, weekend camping, drive outs and a regular monthly meeting with guest speakers, performances and film shows.
The club organises and runs the prestigious OVERLORD military spectacular, a four day event that attracts many military traders, re-enactors, vehicles and exhibitors who inform and entertain the public through static displays and exciting arena events. Surplus from the event is used to support local and national charities such as Rowans Hospice, Help for Heroes and the Ghurka Welfare Trust.
The main supported charity for OVERLORD 2011 was the Royal British Legion who celebrated their 90th anniversary.
