Meet the Team
The Trusts & Foundations Team
Through the generous help of our partners, we help veterans and their families recover from their physical and psychological wounds so they can live well after service. We continue to be there to support them, for as long as they need.
Will you help us to positively change the lives of the Armed Forces community?
Our Trusts & Foundations Team would love to work with you to explore how your aims and passions align with the work we do.
WHAT IMPACT WILL YOUR DONATION HAVE?
Your generosity could be life-saving. You will make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of the Armed Forces community as the need for support continues to grow.
Your gift could help someone to walk again or help a veteran grow in confidence by participating in sports. It could provide mental health support or help combat isolation by connecting communities. You could provide vital treatment, professional help and equipment.
Our services are vast and varied, so there are many different opportunities to support us and fund projects and services to suit your interests. Please click on the links below to find out more about our services.
Supporting mental health and wellbeing
Our Hidden Wounds team support veterans and their families with assessment and treatment for mental health difficulties. Trained clinicians provide a range of one-to-one treatments including cognitive behavioural therapy and counselling. They also provide education to help people understand their mental health and how to stay well.
Improving veterans' physical health
At Help for Heroes, we have a Clinical and Medical team made up of nurses, occupational therapists and medical advisors who support veterans with their personalised physical recovery. We provide holistic support so veterans can adapt to and manage their health condition, injury or illness. We also provide round the clock specialist care for our Very Seriously Injured veterans who have catastrophic injuries.
Enabling Inclusive Sports and Social Activities
Through our Community Development Team we provide life-improving sports, recreational and social activities across the UK and online to help aid recovery and tackle problems of loneliness and isolation. Our Help for Heroes cafes help veterans and families chat to our team about the support, services and events we offer and are a chance to connect with others who understand and have shared similar life experiences. We also offer people bespoke physical fitness support including strength and conditioning programmes, physical activity plans and support to access local sporting opportunities.
Providing Grants, Equipment & Support
Our Grants team help veterans and families in need of urgent financial support. We provide grants which can be used to help them access specialist therapies and carers or obtain clinical and specialist equipment, such as leg braces or wheelchairs. We also help people get housing adaptations to give veterans back their freedom and dignity. We can even help cover basic needs such as food and utilities.
Delivering Courses & Learning Opportunities
Our Recovery College is the first of its’ kind, offering a range of bespoke recovery training courses that enable veterans to take back control of their lives. Our free educational courses help people gain knowledge and skills to manage their physical and mental wellbeing, so they can move forward in their lives with confidence. Our online courses cover a range of topics such as sleep, anger, anxiety, low mood, nutrition and financial wellbeing; we also have self-help guides.
Welfare Services & Family Support
Case managers here ensure that everyone gets the support they need and feel like they belong. Our team put together a coordinated plan for support across our welfare services that include employment support, money management skills, housing support and community links. We also provide support to family members whose lives are also changing.

To do this, we will:
- Provide you with a relationship manager
