Veterans' Gateway

There is a huge network of organisations who support the Armed Forces community and the Veterans' Gateway is the recommended first point of contact.

It is made up of a number of organisations and charities, and will be able to connect veterans and their families with the right support as soon as possible. 

You can contact the Veterans' Gateway by:

Armed Forces Outreach Support

We also work in collaboration with Shropshire Council to provide Armed Forces Outreach Support for military personnel, veterans and their families. 

Sarah Kerr, Armed Forces Outreach Support Coordinator at Shropshire Council, is based in the Veterans Hub, offering signposting, support and advice.

She is also supported by a range of organisations and charities who can provide information on housing, healthcare, finance and benefits, education, wellbeing and employment. 

More about these sessions can be found on the Shropshire Council website.
