Care for Veterans has received a grant of £69,322 from ABF The Soldiers’ Charity which will go towards the cost of providing rehabilitation services to disabled veterans and ththmeir dependents over the next 12 months…

Care for Veterans has been caring for disabled veterans since it was first established in 1919 and celebrates its centenary this year. With no regular government funding, the charity must raise over £1.9 million each year to maintain its nursing and rehabilitation services for ex-Service personnel.

The donation from ABF The Soldiers’ Charity will go towards vital services, including occupational therapy, physiotherapy, neuropsychology, on-site wheelchair clinic, rehabilitation kitchen, social and recreation activities, outings, chaplaincy and ambulance service.

Care for Veterans’ Chief Executive, Andy Neaves, said: “We are extremely grateful to ABF The Soldiers’ Charity for their very generous donation.

“With approximately a third of our current residents either having served in, or having familial links to the British Army, this donation is a wonderful example of their commitment to supporting soldiers, veterans and their immediate families for life. On behalf of our residents I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their continued support.”
