Evaluation Report: Stoll London Outreach Service (Transition Support)

While the majority of Service leavers experience very few difficulties with transitioning and life after the Armed Forces, a significant minority require specialist support (with issues like education and re-training, employment, housing, physical health and mental health). The Armed Forces Covenant clearly states that every person who has served should have support made available to them to enable them to make a smooth transition back into civilian life. It also states that the level of support needed will vary from individual to individual. The Stoll London Outreach service (Transition Support) comprises two dedicated Transition Support Officers who create support plans with each new Veteran referred to the service, and then work with them to help them manage their identified needs and achieve their aspirations. It is a holistic support service which offers a tailored programme of support to assist and enable those going through transition to achieve better outcomes. The main purpose of this evaluation is to show what the Stoll London Outreach Service (Transition Support) has achieved. It was formed with funding from the Forces in Mind Trust (FiMT) in January 2015.
