Gurkha Welfare Advice Centre - Aldershot

About

The Gurkha Welfare Advice Centre (GWAC) in Aldershot helps retired Gurkhas to successfully settle in the UK. They work closely with government bodies and service charities such as SSAFA, the RBL and the ABF, who are committed to supporting Army veterans.

Managed by retired Gurkha officers, they offer advice and support tailored to the elderly ex-Gurkhas and widows coming to settle in the UK, who might otherwise lack the necessary language skills to access the welfare state.

Whether it be for accessing living expense grants or eligible state benefits, seeking employment or simply general advice on life in the UK, the GWAC plays a vital role to help those in need.

For more details and FAQS, please visit their website. Their General Information Brochure and Newsletter are also available for download via their website.

How to get started. Choose a category. Information is sorted into categories by service or organisation name. The directory focuses on what is available locally through statutory, community and voluntary organisations.
