Haig Housing is proud to have served the British Veteran community for over 100 years. As the leading housing provider for ex-Service personnel in the UK, the charity now owns over 1,500 properties across 50 locations.
The Trust assists eligible Veterans in housing need, whether they are transitioning into civilian life or are simply in need of a helping hand.
Located across the UK, properties are a mix of family-sized and smaller houses, flats and maisonettes on small well-managed estates. These estates range in size from as small as six properties to our largest estate in Morden with 360 homes. Built mostly in the 1930s, 1950s and 1990s, the most recent new development in Morden, was opened by the Trust’s Patron, Her Majesty The Queen, in 2019, creating eco-friendly houses designed for the future.
Properties are available to qualifying beneficiaries at an affordable, charitable rent. As the leading housing provider in the UK we offer advice, guidance and signposting to other Veterans charities and other organisations to assist those in housing need.
In the past, the Trust has also provided a small number of joint purchase properties for severely wounded or injured Service personnel and Veterans. This scheme enabled the purchase of a home in a suitable location close to family, friends and support network. In this way the Trust provided appropriate housing for those in need of rebuilding their lives following traumatic life-changing injuries.
