Projects

Since 2010, the charity has successfully managed projects supporting the needs of hundreds of veterans.
Veteran Talks, Veterans' Mess Tent, Veterans in Mind, Safety Catch, and Helping Hands are some of the many projects that have made a difference.

Cost of Living challenges

The charity has supported many veterans who have experienced difficulties due to the cost of living crisis.Our funding is limited, but we help where we can.

Mental health and counselling

At some points in our lives, emotions can feel overwhelming. Some psychological issues faced by service leavers and family members may be difficult to reconcile. Sharing with loved ones is not always easy, and often, seeking support can seem daunting.

Qualified psychotherapists, who are veterans or family members, provide our counselling service.

Other support

After leaving military service, the key is maximising the skills and experience gained to make the most of any opportunities. Housing, employment, and welfare guidance could help.

Adjusting to civilian life can provide challenges. If you are unsure what to do next or want a safe and confidential place to talk, don't hesitate to contact us. We will do our best to help or point you in the direction of people who can.
