DEFENCE Secretary John Healey has visited Cleethorpes and expressed enthusiasm to receive personally at the Ministry of Defence a petition for the resort to host National Armed Forces Day in 2026.
Melanie Onn MP (Labour Great Grimsby and Cleethorpes) welcomed the Defence Secretary on Friday, May 9, and Mr Healey met a number of local veterans.
He spent the evening speaking to several, and was seated at Ms Onn's gala dinner alongside NEL4Heroes representatives, an organisation dedicated to supporting veterans in North East Lincolnshire.
NEL4Heroes helps ex-service personnel re-engage with civilian life, with opportunities to socialise, build community connections, and access peer support.
