Service Description

Poppyscotland provides life-changing support to our Armed Forces Community, including those who have served, those still serving, and their families. Its tailored support and funding can help to alleviate immediate needs with rent deposits, home start-up items, repairs and mobility aids and adaptations, as well as many other areas. Other Welfare services include short breaks and employment services, including re-training grants and employment support for those with mental health issues. We offer advice, information and support through one to one contact across a range of areas, including employment, finances, benefits and housing. The Ayrshire Centre in Kilmarnock is open 10am to 4pm. Drop in and see us and meet other veterans or call on 01563 598000 or visit our website.
