Veterans Aid (VA) is a UK charity, which is dedicated to providing immediate, practical and holistic support to veterans who are homeless, facing homelessness or in crisis, regardless of age, ethnicity, rank, gender, orientation or length of service. Its aim is to emotionally, socially and financially empower veterans to sustain independent living - and has been doing so since 1932.

Veterans Aid recently hosted an exclusive "Thank You & Awareness" evening, gathering nearly 200 dedicated supporters at the prestigious Armoury House, home of The Honourable Artillery Company (HAC).

Reflecting on the success of the event, CEO Professor Hugh Milroy stated:
"It was a magnificent evening. We extend our deepest gratitude to our hosts, the HAC, who have generously committed to supporting us as their chosen charity for the next three years, and to the Worshipful Company of Vintners for their invaluable support which helped make the night so memorable."

The evening also served as a platform to recognise extraordinary fundraising milestones. A special tribute was paid to Mark and Janet Prior, who raised an incredible £21,672 for Veterans Aid during their tenure as captains of West Herts Golf Club.

The charity also extends its sincere thanks to the HAC Pikemen & Musketeers and the Light Cavalry, whose ceremonial presence added a unique and deeply valued dimension to the evening's proceedings.

Our COO, Natalia Michaelides, is in Warsaw at Europe’s leading homelessness FEANTSA conference, underscoring why we must benchmark and learn from the best initiatives across the continent.

Europe’s homelessness data is messy, political and inconsistent. From debates over whether staying with family “counts” to countries reporting near zero homelessness while others report tens of thousands. FEANTSA helps drive alignment, but GDPR hurdles, clashing definitions and resistance to one size fits all frameworks show just how urgently the sector needs shared strategy before shared stats.

Once again, we’ve been deeply impressed by the outstanding efforts of the RLC chefs, who visited New Belvedere House this week to cook for our veterans.

Their commitment to Veterans Aid spans more than a decade, and it remains remarkable to see them uphold that promise with such skill, energy, devotion, and pride. And their contribution goes far beyond the kitchen because they are now creating educational nutrition materials for our residents, further enriching the support they offer.

Our CEO captured the sentiment perfectly: “Amazing guys – proud to have their support. This truly illustrates the unique nature of military service… a genuine band of brothers."
