Veterans Nomination Scheme: Housing Access for Ex-Service

What is the Veterans’ Nomination Scheme? The Veterans’ Nomination Scheme is a great way for Veterans to rent stable, affordable accommodation. The VNS has arranged a home for over 500 Veterans. We cover the whole of England and get new properties all the time from over 90 housing associations and social landlords. We then match vacancies with Veterans.

Who can benefit? The Veterans’ Nomination Scheme is aimed mainly at single people and couples without children who would not normally be able to get social housing. We can also help find accommodation for Service Leavers who are making the transition to civilian life. The Veterans’ Nomination Scheme is only suitable for Veterans who can live independently with very little support.

What sort of accommodation is available? We are mainly offered one-bedroom flats and studios in England. We are occasionally offered properties for families, but the waiting list for these tends to be very long. All the properties are for rent at affordable levels.

Stoll provides supported housing, training, education and mental health support to vulnerable and socially excluded veterans in London.
