VeteransInNeed.org.uk is widely acknowledged as the premier resource platform for veterans and their families throughout the United Kingdom. This extensive website also offers support to active members of the Armed Forces, in addition to providing services to communities and businesses across the nation.


This comprehensive platform was established in 2016 and provides a wide range of information, support, and services specifically tailored to meet the unique needs of military veterans and their families. In addition, it serves as a professional venue for businesses to promote their offerings, with a focused emphasis on the military community.


Veterans In Need offers essential resources that provide guidance, support, and opportunities for exploration for individuals within the veteran community. These resources are intended to assist in navigating the various challenges faced by veterans and their families in contemporary society.


We invite you to support our nation's veterans and their families by contributing to our fundraising account. The generated funds will be utilised for the management and hosting of the Veterans In Need website and to aid those facing financial difficulties. Additionally, we will be making donations to two mental health charities that support and benefit individuals in need.


To join the Veterans In Need Facebook Group, it is mandatory to respond to all questions presented by the group. Furthermore, the applicant must agree to the group rules; failure to comply will result in the automatic decline of the application.

Veterans In Need is committed to connecting military community members with the right resources available...

We have witnessed a significant increase in demand for help & assistance from both veterans, and their families, especially following the closure of the Government's "Veterans Gateway" platform. In response, we are seeking to recruit more volunteers to support this growing need on our website and social media platforms...


Our dedicated team of volunteers works tirelessly to ensure that the information on the website is both current and accurate. If you come across any information that you believe is incorrect or outdated, please help us and others by letting us know through the Contact Us page...

Thank you!

We DO NOT collect funds or products from pop-up stands, supermarkets, or food banks. If you encounter anyone claiming to represent Veterans In Need in such settings, please ask to see their photographic identification and certification issued by the Charity Commission.  If they cannot provide this information, do not give them anything and report them to the police as soon as possible...


Unfortunately, some individuals pose as fundraisers and service providers for veterans when they are not genuine. To prevent this from happening in the future, it's essential to ask for proper identification and conduct thorough checks with the relevant authorities...


Genuine fundraisers do not mind showing you their identification, and they should always display a Pass...

Housing & Accommodation


No one should be homeless in today's society, especially veterans or those from any of our emergency services who have served this country...



Since our establishment in 2016, Veterans In Need has been committed to the goal of eliminating homelessness among veterans and their families. Our website functions as a comprehensive resource, providing essential information and guidance to assist individuals in finding appropriate accommodation options and support services.


If you represent a housing organisation or own rental properties, we encourage you to consider advertising on the Veterans In Need website. By doing so, you will contribute to providing housing for individuals who are reliable and who will ensure that your property is maintained to the highest standards.


You may be assured that your property will be in capable hands when rented to a military veteran or their family. We currently feature advertisements from all housing authorities and local councils throughout the United Kingdom on our website. We strongly encourage private landlords to utilise our platform to connect with veterans and their families, as they exemplify exceptional standards of integrity and responsibility.

HOUSING

On the website, you will find a wealth of help & information for social accommodation, PTSD, help for mental health problems, application forms, useful links, documents, contact forms, businesses, finance, books, medal mounting, tailoring, as well as details about substance abuse, addiction and rehabilitation.
