EDs Ex Forces Housing and Support EDs homes houses veterans in Wigan and surrounding areas. We provide housing support for homeless ex forces. Our veterans are heroes of our communities.

We believe they should be treated with respect and honour.
​
At EDs our mission is to provide our military and emergency service veterans and their families with high standard, compassionate and transitional support as they integrate back into civilian life. These men and women who served their nation fall into hard times deserve our support and we at EDs want to be there for them when difficulties arise. Our primary goal is to ensure our veterans and their families are safely housed and are receiving the support they need to build a stable home life.
​
However we also aim to ensure they receive access to essential care and support provision through signposting to our community partners, in order that these issues are addressed by the correct professionals as quickly as possible. At our EDs hub we provide a welcoming and relaxed environment were our clients can simply pop in for a chat or to access our high standard service provision.

Everyone is invited to mark this year’s anniversary of the Battle of Britain, with a special free concert in Mesnes Park, Wigan, on Sunday 13 September, followed, a couple of days later, by a small ceremony and minute’s silence in Believe Square, Wigan, on Battle of Britain Day, Tuesday 15 September.

The Higham Brothers’ Memorial Concert in the park on Sunday 13 September will feature the combined bands of the Lancashire Artillery Volunteers Band and The Band of The Duke of Lancaster’s Regiment. The concert will be on the band stand between 2pm to 4pm.

The small ceremony on Tuesday 15 September on Believe Square will start at 10.45am, with the minute’s silence taking place at 11am.

Both events will be an opportunity to remember everyone who fought in the Battle of Britain.

The 15 September was officially named Battle of Britain Day as in 1940 it was the day when RAF Fighter Command claimed what proved to be a decisive victory over the German Luftwaffe.
