Homeless advice for armed forces veterans
Other help available
Some single homeless people don't qualify for help from us or any other local authority. There are a range of services for people who find themselves homeless and on the streets, for example:
- SSAFA (ssafa.gov.uk) provide housing advice to people currently serving in the forces and ex services personnel and their families
- Veterans Gateway (veteransgateway.org.uk) can support ex-forces members with healthcare and housing issues, and also give advice about employability, finances, personal relationships and more. Veterans’ Gateway can also be contacted 24/7 on 0808 8021212
- Housing advice for veterans (britishlegion.org.uk). The direct number to the help line is 0808 8028080
