Some people might need support for a short period of time to find their confidence and get back on their feet. Others might need lifelong support.

If you served in or worked alongside the UK Armed Forces, or you’re a relative of a veteran, we are here for you.

WE’RE ON YOUR SIDE

Are you finding life after the Armed Forces tough?

It’s not easy leaving the military behind and getting used to civilian life, but we can help. No matter where or when you served there are many ways we can support you if you are finding things difficult.

We also help families, and anyone who has worked alongside the British military.

We work with people in their communities and homes all over the UK, and we run online activities and events.

It takes courage to ask for help, and it could make all the difference.

PEACE OF MIND

Are you feeling stressed, depressed, or anxious? Do you feel angry? If so, we can help. No-one can deal with those feelings on their own. But you don’t have to, you’re not alone.

Are you feeling overwhelmed trying to manage your situation? We can help you put together a plan so you can focus on the important things and take back control of your life.

HELP WITH YOUR HEALTHCARE JOURNEY

Are you often in pain? Do you find it difficult to get the help you need from hospitals and doctors? We can support and guide you on your healthcare journey, to help you get the answers you need.

A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

Are you finding it difficult getting a good night’s sleep? Do you wake up feeling really tired? We can look at what might be causing problems with your sleep and help you get a good night’s rest.

Do you find it difficult getting enough exercise? Do you want to have a healthy diet and lifestyle, but are not sure where to start? Do you want support to drink less alcohol? We can help with all those things, so you can take back control of your health.

IN GOOD COMPANY

If you sometimes feel lonely or isolated and would like to talk to someone who understands, we can help.

Do you want to take part in sport again? We can give you the chance to get involved in a wide range of sports and outdoor activities, whatever your ability is.

We also help veterans and families stay connected through social activities, online get-togethers, hobby and interest groups and face-to-face drop-ins.

Sometimes just a coffee and a chat with people who really ‘get it’ can make all the difference. We know how good it can be for veterans and their loved ones to spend time with others who have been through similar experiences. At our events you can meet other veterans and families near you.
