Our Specialist Care Home Services

We work directly with care and nursing homes across the UK to enrich the daily lives of residents who served, ensuring they feel respected, understood, and connected.

🤝 Veteran Befrienders

We actively recruit and train volunteer befrienders who have themselves served in the Armed Forces or Merchant Navy. We pair them with residents for regular visits, providing an instant bond of shared experience. We also collaborate with local service associations to arrange special visits or transport residents out to military community events.

🎖️ Tailored Reminiscence Packs

We collate bespoke memory packs designed around a resident's specific military history. By providing us with their branch of service, regiment, and service dates, our team curates personalized fact sheets and historical cues to stimulate memory, spark pride, and encourage conversation. We also supply care homes with high-quality generic military history packs.

🦋 The Veterans Dementia Butterfly

To ensure that care teams are constantly reminded of a resident’s unique background, we provide our unique Veterans Dementia Butterfly markers. Displayed discreetly on room doors or care notes, this symbol alerts staff and visiting professionals to adapt their communication style, respect military routines, and look out for specific triggers.

📅 Events & Community Engagement

We help care homes mark important military milestones throughout the year (such as Armed Forces Day, Remembrance Sunday, or regiment anniversaries). We provide planning fact sheets, media outreach templates for local press, and guidance on the cultural "dos and don'ts" of engaging with the wider Armed Forces community.
