Joining Forces Tyne & Wear

Joining Forces is a veterans support project covering the whole of Tyne & Wear and supported through several Age UK local organisations.  If you were born before 1950 and have a military background, including National Service, Reserves and Merchant Navy, or if you are a family member or carer of a veteran, then they may be able to help.

They offer veterans help with:

  • Pension entitlement, military medals and badges.
  • activities, support and social groups.
  • benefits checks, attendance allowance and blue badge applications
