Whether it's a relaxed trip to the local shops or a chat over coffee, our volunteers are there to make sure our veterans have a great day out.

We are committed to supporting our blind veterans no matter where they are.

Our outings volunteers provide crucial social interaction for our veterans who can sometimes feel isolated or lonely.

We have a member in the Kenton area who is looking for social companionship and access to the local community whether that be a trip to the shops or a local café.

Please note that applicants who drive and have their own car are preferrable for this role  

Weekends can be discussed with the member and the volunteer if this suits them both.
