Cardiff City Veterans Hub

The Cardiff City Veterans Hub is a social isolation project delivered by Cardiff City FC Community Foundation that supports Armed Forces Veterans who are at high risk of social isolation and loneliness. 

The project uses the power of Cardiff City FC to connect and support ex-armed forces personnel in and around Cardiff to improve their physical and mental wellbeing through community involvement.

Wales has one of the largest proportions of veterans in the UK with 7% of all veterans currently living here. Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan has a veterans population of around 27,320 and 8% suffer from mental health issues including depression and anxiety.

Our weekly online and face-to-face sessions, combined with regular day trips, provide routine, helps people build friendships, and offer a range of community activities that support personal progression.
