August 2026 Update Squaddie Box Update: Expanding Our Impact Behind the Scenes

Our quiet periods are often our busiest. While we have been working behind the scenes, our team has actively built powerful new partnerships with charities, Community Interest Companies (CICs), and local authorities.
Today, these efforts are bearing fruit for beneficiaries across both Squaddie Box and Civvie Box.
Key Milestones & New Partnerships
    • Council Support: A Lincolnshire council has officially signed up to support local veterans through our program.
    • National Reach: Multiple homelessness charities and CICs across the UK are now partnering with us.
    • Providing Addresses: Together, we are establishing permanent addresses for those in need.

Why a Permanent Address Matters
A permanent address is the critical turning point in a person’s journey from being unseen to rejoining visible society. It acts as the foundation for individuals to access vital, life-changing resources, including:
    • Healthcare: Consistent mental health support and medical treatments.
    • Housing: Transitioning into permanent, safe accommodation.
    • Growth: Access to training programs and stable employment.

By securing these partnerships, we are not just providing temporary relief—we are actively preventing the recurrence of homelessness and isolation. Thank you for standing with us as we help our beneficiaries step back into the light

We have begun discussions around a potential RAF programme that could support serving personnel from recruitment through to transition and beyond
