A Veterans' Champion is an elected member of the council with an interest in the Armed Forces Community. There are 11 local councils in Northern Ireland and every one has a Veterans’ Champion. You can find the designated Veterans’ Champion in your area detailed below.
Local Veterans’ Champions have a good knowledge of local services and are a first point of contact for Veterans who need information, signposting, or referral to the VSO. Veterans' Champions can also identify and advise local charities or Community Interest Companies who may be eligible to apply for funding from the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust.
