How we can help veterans who find us through veterans gateway
We provide en-suite guest rooms to those who have served in the armed forces, the merchant service and the emergency services, and their immediate relatives. If you, your welfare officer, key worker or assessor think that a break would help you then we can provide it. We do not offer care, but we provide a safe and comfortable refuge among other ex-service personnel.
Some ways in which we can help:
- Are your four walls driving you mad? If you are ex-service then we can at least offer you a change of scene amongst people whose life experiences will probably have been similar to your own. Spend a few days with us to return home refreshed and re-charged.
- Are you between houses? For whatever reason you can find yourself temporarily without a roof over your head, we may be able to provide the shelter you need until your new home is ready, subject to availability for long term stays
- Is your home being decorated? Get away from the noise and dust while the work is being carried out by staying with us for as long as it takes.
If you find that what we can offer suits your current needs then don’t hesitate to contact us.
