The Sir Oswald Stoll Foundation Supporting our Veterans since 1917
The Sir Oswald Stoll Foundation
provides homes and rehabilitative support to vulnerable and disabled ex-Servicemen and women, including those who have been homeless.
Based in Fulham, we provide supported housing to hundreds of vulnerable and disabled Veterans, many of whom are homeless. Yet there is much more to do:
- Recent research from the University of York has shown that on any given night there are 1,100 homeless ex-Service personnel in London alone
- Ex-Service personnel are more susceptible to mental ill health than the rest of the population; this problem will only get worse as troops return from Iraq and Afghanistan
- Many ex-service people, particularly elderly Veterans are lonely, isolated and suffer depression
- The number of Falklands Veterans who have killed themselves now far exceeds the number killed in the actual conflict
WE BELIEVE OUR VETERANS DESERVE BETTER THAN THIS. We know that Veterans can flourish and rebuild their lives when brought together with appropriate support within a community where they consider they belong. We are therefore committed to building and sustaining communities within which ex-Service people can live positively and healthily.
