Veteran support
We are working with local organisations, Assistplus CIC and Soldiers, Sailors, Airforce and Families Association (SSAFA), to give help and support to people who have served in the armed forces.
What support you can get
The veteran support service includes:
- telephone and email helpline
- monthly peer support sessions
- drop-in sessions at the Jubilee Centre in Bradley Stoke
- home visits from case workers
It includes advice on:
- education

This is a grant funded pilot project under the Armed Forces Covenant.
