Veterans In Communities (Heywood, Middleton & Rochdale)

Veterans In Communities (VIC) works across Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale areas to support those who have served in any of the branches of the Armed Forces, Emergency Services and their families.

We offer a range of activities which are run by veterans or retired members of the emergency services. The range of activities include;

  • Walking and outdoor activities.
  • Social Inclusion trips.
  • Helping the local community with small projects.
  • Training opportunities,
  • Veterans Outreach and Information Services.

?
Our Peer Support activities and projects are being delivered by veterans for veterans. Our community projects, outdoor activities and outreach services have been designed and developed by VIC members who understand the needs of veterans.  Although many of our members have served in the Armed Forces or Emergency Services or have an association with the Armed Forces through family, VIC is not exclusive to veterans, and many of our Peer Support activities include those who haven't served.
