Believe Housing

Description

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant

believe housing has made a strong commitment to help provide an affordable and secure home for anyone associated with the armed forces. Additional priority has been given to serving personnel and veterans when applying for a home and video conference home viewings can even be made for anyone serving abroad.

Alongside affordable rent and secure tenure, anyone who with an armed forces background has access to expert help with managing their new home, finding new or more stable work and access to advice on welfare benefits and other financial matters.

We have a range of measures to ensure that those who have served also have access to employment opportunities in the organisation. There are a variety of options available to support reservists and for spouses of anyone who serves their country.

believe housing also contributes towards an Armed Forces Liaison Officer who works with organisations and forces personnel across north east England to ensure that high quality support is available.
