The Veterans' Gateway is a first point of contact for UK armed forces veterans, and their families, providing veterans with support, including across housing, employment, finances and their wellbeing.

The service has historically been operated by a consortium of members of the charitable sector, backed by £2.75 million from the Government.

Earlier this year it was announced that we have launched a refresh of the Veterans’ Gateway, with the service to be run by the Office for Veterans’ Affairs, at the heart of government, next year.
