The National Service of Remembrance, held at The Cenotaph in Whitehall on Remembrance Sunday, provides the nation with a physical reminder of all those who have served and sacrificed, with British and Commonwealth soldiers, sailors, airmen and women represented, together with members of the emergency services and civilians, ensuring that no-one is forgotten.

Return to Tradition...

We have an update on the current situation regarding the provision of Coffin Drapes and Standard Bearers for the funerals of BNTVA veterans.

NAVAD will be celebrated at the National Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas, Staffordshire this year on Sunday 1st October 2023.

To all BNTVA Members Due to the issues being faced by the BNTVA, we are currently unable to produce or circulate editions of Campaign magazine. To assist with the very real need to get information out to its membership the BNTVA Trustees asked exposure magazine if they would accept an editorial section from the BNTVA. Because exposure is an editorial-based publication our team had to confirm with the constituent organisations that they sanctioned the measure. We are pleased to say that they have approved this inclusion as a benefit to our nuclear community. Within the BNTVA Editorial section, you will find announcements and information on the activities of the BNTVA. If you are not a member of the BNTVA but would like to become a supporter after reading this section please contact Shelly Grigg: s.grigg@bntva.com BNTVA Membership PO Box 8244 Castle Donington DE74 2BY

The Trustees have decided to set the Direct Debit amount to £0 for this year and will not process any cheques, they will be destroyed. Any payments already processed will be offered refunds. This is in recognition of the current financial hardship being suffered by many of our members and the poor service given by the BNTVA last year. Due to the restrictions on litigation, we remain unable to comment on certain matters and this will continue for at least the next six weeks after which we should be in a position to disclose everything to our members. We can certainly state that malicious gossip and speculation that the charity is suspended and being investigated by the Charity Commission is utter tripe. The only investigations being conducted at this moment are into former employees and members of the BNTVA. We have recently secured a significant court ruling in relation to the BNTVA archival material and as soon as the case is finalised we will also report on the matter. There have also been deliberate lies circulated about the archives and artefacts of the BNTVA. We can state that we are working to ensure no member of the Nuclear Community nor Researcher or Journalist working to the benefit of our community will ever have to pay to access the archives and artefacts of the BNTVA and that they will be protected in the future from the political upheavals that have been the hallmark of the BNTVA since its inception.

The BNTVA have received numerous enquiries regarding the Chef Executive Officer.

We are mindful that there is a lot of speculation and uncertainty as to what is happening with the BNTVA. Firstly we want to assure you that the organisation is still active and will be around for many years to come providing key services to our beneficiaries and associate membership.
