Warm Welcome from Thornbury RBL

Thornbury District RBL – Strengthening Support Across Our Community

The Thornbury District Royal British Legion is one of the largest and most active branches in our area. If you’re already an RBL member, you’re welcome to join not only Charfield and Wotton branches but also Thornbury. This shared membership strengthens support for local veterans while contributing to the wider national RBL mission.

Thornbury stands out with a full, active committee and a membership of around 65. They are strong advocates for community support, ensuring regular welfare calls to local veterans and members. Alongside this, they host a wide range of social events, all of which are open to veterans from across the area.

Veterans on the Edge members attended many of these events throughout 2025, and with one of our own now serving as the Thornbury Chair, we’re excited to build an even closer relationship in 2026.

Thornbury warmly invites all local veterans to their monthly committee meetings, held at the Wheatsheaf Inn on the last Sunday of each month at 12:30.

We were also delighted to join their Annual Black Tie Dinner—usually hosted at Thornbury Golf Club—and their summer BBQ. Both were fantastic highlights of 2025, and we’re already looking forward to next year’s events.
