Veterans in Action w/ Billy MacLeod MBE

This week I’m talking to British Armed Forces Veteran and founder of Veterans in Action, the post traumatic growth charity, Billy MacLeod MBE. After leaving the Royal Engineers and running his own successful business for decades, he started Veterans in Action to help armed forces veterans discover a sense of achievement, aiding them to rebuild their confidence, self-esteem and self-belief.  What evolved was a charity that played a key role in the Coronavirus Pandemic response, delivering essential goods to vulnerable people throughout the UK and more recently providing humanitarian aid to Ukrainian refugees and those still trapped by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Due to his incredible work, Billy was awarded an MBE in the Queen’s 2020 birthday honours. At the time of release, Billy and members of his team were in Poland distributing aid and medical supplies. If you'd like to donate medical supplies, food or other items to be taken to aid Ukrainian refugees in Poland, you can send them the following address: Veterans In Action, The Old Grain Store, Home Farm Lane, Redenham Park, Andover, Hants, SP11 9AQ, UK veteransinaction.org.uk -- If you'd like to support Sod's Law you can become a Sod's Law patron at patreon.com/sodspod from as little as £1 /$1 a month - there are different tiers including ad-free episodes, giveaways and more!
