Are you, or do you know of a Veteran who is experiencing homelessness and in need of accommodation? If so, please get in touch. 

Due to a few of our residents successfully moving on to independent living, we currently have a few spaces available, including at our Dundee residence Rosendael. If you wish to make an accommodation enquiry, please visit our website and fill out the simple online form on the homepage: https://www.svronline.org/

Or you can call us 24/7 on 0300 131 6755

We support ex-Service men and women of all ages, and also those who have served in the Merchant Navy. Our residences are in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Dundee, but we help Veterans from across the UK and occasionally beyond.

SVR's Annual Report will be published next month, giving us a chance to share our impact and data. The image above is a snapshot of the age and service of Veterans we supported in 2025.
