Respite holidays

We’re here to help make a difference to armed forces and veteran families

We understand the difficulties faced by Armed Forces and veteran families who have a loved one living with a disability and the unique physical and emotional challenges of ensuring specific support needs are met on a daily basis.

One way which we can help is to provide respite holidays for armed forces and veteran families to take a trip anywhere in the United Kingdom to escape daily routine, do the things they enjoy and build up treasured memories which will last a lifetime.

Who we can support

We can support armed forces and veteran families who have a loved one living with life-changing psychological or physical conditions, as well as life-limiting/chronic illnesses to share quality time together.

We can also support young carers (up to the age of 27 years) from serving, reservist or veteran families to take a well-earned respite holiday break from their caring responsibilities with their families.

We are ready to listen and do whatever it takes

Forces Children Scotland works in partnership with SSAFA and The Travel Company Edinburgh to deliver its respite holiday service.

We understand finding time to plan and book a holiday can be stressful. That’s why we work in partnership to minimise stress and to understand specific requirements to ensure you have a holiday to remember.
