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.”
Whether you’re due to leave the Armed Forces, a reservist or already left the military, you can contact Op COURAGE to book an appointment. You don’t have to go through your GP to access Op COURAGE, however, if you’d like them or someone else to refer you, you can ask them to do this.
It doesn’t matter how long you served for or when you left the Armed Forces, Op COURAGE is here to help.
