Veteran Support Pathways .
OP FORTITUDE
Op FORTITUDE. The remit of the team will be to work with individual veterans at risk of or experiencing homelessness, supporting them either into suitable accommodation, or supporting them to maintain their current home.
The approach involves creating a pathway from the veteran at risk or experiencing homelessness to veteran supported housing or organisation that can support them to keep their current home and avoid becoming homeless in the first place, as well as other unsupported veteran housing. At the centre of this is a team dedicated to making that link. The Block is proud to be a referral partner of the new Pathway.

OP COURAGE
Anyone can be affected by mental ill health but Armed forces veterans may have seen and experienced things that few others – thankfully – will.
That can create a special set of challenges for the NHS but working with military organisations like The Block helps the NHS to overcome. Op Courage – ensures that the NHS is a National Hero Service.”
Troops can now benefit from specialist care for lower level problems such as anxiety and depression at the Block on Walton Road Liverpool. Help for more complex problems such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is availible through the Op Courage. The new service focus's on those in crisis, at risk of self-harm or suicide, or suffering other problems such as homelessness and addiction.
