Cynhelir Aduniad yr Holl Brofion ym mis Medi bob blwyddyn ym Mhontins, Sand Bay, Weston-Super-Mare.
Mae'r aduniad oedolion yn unig yn dod â Chyn-filwyr a'u teuluoedd ynghyd am wyliau wythnos o hyd. Mae'r pwyllgor trefnu yn darparu adloniant am yr wythnos gyfan ac yn darparu amgylchedd i hen gydweithwyr ddod at ei gilydd a thrafod eu hamser yn y profion.
Cynhaliwyd digwyddiad 2021 rhwng 20 a 24 Medi 2021. Hoffem ddiolch i'r Elusennau Cartref yn lle a ganiataodd inni dalu am lety 15 o gyn-filwyr a The Not Forgotten a dalodd am yr adloniant a'r daith i Amgueddfa Braich Awyr y Fflyd.
Bydd 2022 yn digwydd rhwng 19eg-23ain Medi 2022.
Mae'r digwyddiad yn costio rhwng £ 84 y pen sy'n cynnwys brecwast a phryd gyda'r nos. Defnyddiwch y ffurflen archebu isod o 11 Hydref 2021.
Mae'r digwyddiad yn gyfle gwych i gwrdd â Chyn-filwyr Niwclear eraill ac i ail-fyw'r unigrwydd yr ydym i gyd wedi gorfod ei ddioddef yn ystod y pandemig. Rydym yn edrych ymlaen at eich gweld chi i gyd ym mis Medi 2022. Os ydych chi'n cadw'ch lle, mae grŵp Facebook wedi'i greu a fydd yn darparu diweddariadau. Ymunwch trwy glicio yma.

OVA PROJECTS
Dr Chris Hill and Dr Jon Hogg presented the Oral History Project and had a great day with the veterans, listening to their views on the project and enjoying a very constructive focus group.
The Big Ideas project dialled in (after a last minute train cancellation) and showed the veterans a preview of the work that they had been undertaking.

mediumship evening
Sian Friend and Bill Nicholson provided an evening of mediumship which many veterans and their families had requested. It was an emotional evening.
memorial bench
In 2021, we unveiled a bench in memory of Sandie Hern and Jim Copper. This year we added a plaque to the bench in memory of our founder's dad, James Ronald Owen. This plaque was originally meant for the National Memorial Arboretum but unfortunately, permission was denied from the trustees of the memorial to add it, despite many others being added.
It now has pride of place on the bench at Weston.
NUKED BLOOD SCANDAL
On the 21st of September, the Nuked Blood Scandal Legal Claim was launched.
With the help of our Volunteers, we raised £1396 for next year's event. An amazing total. Thanks to the National Lottery Community Fund for funding the accommodation this year.
Special thanks to Sue Long, Marion Baker and their families for the cakes. Janet Barton for selling her handmade goods. Laura Jackson for providing the raffle tickets and Quiz trophy. SJ and Jason Evans for providing the teak oil for Sandie & Jim's bench and adding the second coat after Mel, Laura and Joseph had added the first coat.
For everyone who provided a raffle prize, purchased a ticket and donated, we thank you. So many memories were made and we look forward to 2023.
