Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust, Thrive Together

Supporting Veterans Through Peer Mentorship: The latest Initiative at The VC Gallery The VC Gallery is excited to announce a new project funded by The Veterans’ Foundation, aimed at providing tailored support for serving and former members of the armed forces community, operationally qualified seafarers, and their families. This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to honoring the sacrifices made by our veterans and ensuring they have access to the resources and connections they deserve. With the generous support of The Veterans’ Foundation, The VC Gallery will employ an ex-forces peer mentor who will offer dedicated guidance and assistance to veterans and their families. This peer-led approach fosters understanding, trust, and shared experience, creating a safe and welcoming environment for veterans to reconnect with their community and rediscover a sense of belonging. The mentor will encourage veterans and their families to make use of our vibrant hubs, where they can participate in social activities, enjoy communal lunches, explore creative opportunities, and access essential digital resources. These hubs are more than just spaces—they’re a chance for veterans to build meaningful relationships, gain new skills, and find support in their journey. We believe that no veteran should feel isolated or unsupported, and this project is a step forward in ensuring they have a community to rely on. For more information about this initiative or to get involved, please contact The VC Gallery. Together, let’s continue to make a difference for those who have given so much
