A Viking longboat built by veterans debuts at the Jorvik Viking Festival to support mental health.
A full-sized Viking longboat named Stormbird, built by over 60 veterans over four years, is set to debut at the Jorvik Viking Festival in York from February 17 to 22. The project, which moved from a Help For Heroes center to Darlington due to the pandemic, aims to support veterans' mental health through teamwork and building camaraderie. After the festival, Stormbird will make more appearances in the UK, and the charity overseeing the project plans to expand with new projects and training courses.
