At our breakfast hub, new and existing members will be welcomed and offered FREE breakfast barms, coffee, tea, and camaraderie comes as standard. Plus support around welfare, pensions, medals, housing, mental health and counselling.

Veteran's Hub
Building on the success of Birchwood’s VIP (Veterans Inclusion Project), our now established Veteran’s hub provides social activity, ‘walk-in’ or virtual peer support and mentoring, advice on welfare, benefits, pensions, and medal advice as well as support for carers. They will also be able to access our holistic wrap around services including mental health and wellbeing such as counselling, mediation, housing, and financial advice as well as working with a range of organisations in the area to shape better pathways to
employment.

The hub is run by veterans and is exclusive to those from the armed forces, reservists, and their families. At our mental health and wellbeing centre, we have a drop-in lounge for veterans or their family who are in crisis.

Volunteering
We are always looking for individuals who are either currently serving, a veteran or a family member to support the development of the hub or Birchwood’s wider services.
