Support for veterans and Plymouth's military community

Military and veteran support

Are you a military service leaver, veteran, or family member of a service person? Are you needing support or guidance around skills, training or careers?

​

Making the transition from military to civilian life, can be a daunting process for both the leaver, and their families. There is a big adjustment to family life, with normal routine being changed for everyone involved.  

 

When you leave the forces, making your skillset understood and translate to the civilian working world can sometimes be tricky.

The great news is, that there are some brilliant organisations out there to help!

​
