We are Veteran Friendly 💜

Congratulations to 𝐒𝐭 𝐏𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭, 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐫𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞, 𝐂𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞, 𝐖𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡 and 𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 who are the first five homes in our group to achieve Veteran Friendly Status 💜

This outstanding accomplishment reflects the hard work and commitment of our Colleagues and residents, who have worked together to ensure veterans living within our communities feel recognised, respected and supported.

We are immensely proud of everyone involved in achieving this important status. Please join us in congratulating these fantastic teams on their success! 👏

Kathryn Glass, VFF Project Lead at Royal Star & Garter is responsible for supporting and assessing care homes going through the scheme. She said: “We’re delighted that these homes have achieved VFF status. This is a great commitment to their continuous improvement in the delivery of person-centred care for veteran residents and their partners. This programme will benefit both current and future residents, along with current and future staff, to access enhanced training and guidance to better engage with the unique military experiences that their residents and partners have lived through. Being a VFF care home means that there is an increased understanding and recognition for the veteran community"
