"Over the course of two weeks, the centres were alive with activity as daily events like bowling, archery, curling, axe throwing, pool, dominoes, and quizzes gave everyone a chance to participate.
"We even adjusted our rota to ensure that all veterans could try their hand at new activities, and the response has been overwhelmingly positive.
"Veterans who had never experienced some of these sports and games eagerly took on the challenge, and the atmosphere was buzzing due to that added element of competition.
"The highlight for many was receiving their medals, which added a thrilling competitive edge to the event.
"It was truly heartwarming to see the enthusiasm and determination in each participant, and the camaraderie that developed as veterans engaged with different groups and made new friends.
