Salute Cafe: 'Coffee - Connection - Community'

Salute Cafe, has over the last few years, acted as a spring board for veterans and their families and we are delighted to report that everyone who has ever volunteered in Salute Cafe are now in either P/T, full time work or enrolled in full time education and/or volunteering for other charities. This year the power of volunteers will take our community fundraising and community work to the next level. We have lots of plans for 2023 and every penny spent in Salute Cafe goes towards delivering our life transforming projects.

Its Summer .... Time For A Team Visit To Alnwick Gardens

We were delighted to be invited to visit Alnwick Gardens by our Patron Her Grace, The Duchess of Northumberland. We discussed how best to work together in 2023 especially in relation to facilitating opportunities for military families to access the variety of opportunities in the beautiful rural setting of Alnwick Gardens. Watch this space folks.

We’re Hiring

Thanks to funding from the National Health Service (NHS) and the Armed Forces Covenant Trust Fund we will be recruiting up to eight professionally qualified staff in 2021 to develop and support innovative ‘gender specific’ interventions for veterans and their families. We will continue to develop comprehensive assessments that address individual and family needs. Through care coordination and integrated care pathways we will facilitate direct linkage to treatment services for Post Traumatic Stress (PTS),Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Moral Injury and Military Sexual Trauma . Our ‘Healthy Relationships’ workshops and ‘Citizenship Reloaded’ programme will offer a ‘best in class’ approach to supporting families who may be experiencing relational stressors following adjustment to civilian life and/or the difficulties faced during the C-19 pandemic.
