Description
If you are a Veteran who needs a chat, a call, an email from someone that will listen and have a lovely chat with you then we are here to hear you! The Buddy Scheme is an initiative by us that uses volunteers and pairs them with Veterans needing a chat or support. Buddies are volunteers from the public that have agreed to be available for contact when needed, they can be from any background including being Veterans themselves – all Buddies have to go through an interview-like process to make sure they are fit for the role and agree to follow our standards.
