Overview
Veterans Aid provides immediate practical support to all former UK servicemen and women who are homeless, facing homelessness or in crisis.
MAIN ACTIVITIES
In general terms all the charity's activities revolve around helping ex-servicemen and women in crisis. Specifically it deals with all the factors that contribute to crisis - significantly those leading to homelessness.
Because homelessness is both a cause and effect VA's activities are diverse. The endgame is always to enable sustainable, independent living, but the interventions necessary to achieve this can involve days, weeks, months - or even years of investment.
VETERANS AID SYSTEM
First actions might be provision of food, new clothing and shelter.
Subsequent interventions might involve prolonged periods of counselling, drink/drug rehabilitation and medical treatment.
Further support frequently involves education, retraining or the acquisition of a new skill.
Help is given to identify employment opportunities and, when they are deemed ready, individuals are helped to move into new homes - furnished and decorated by Veterans Aid.
