About the UDR & R IRISH (HS) Aftercare Service

The Aftercare Service has been created and funded in recognition of the unique set of circumstances which continue to affect the ex-service community, comprising former UDR and R IRISH (HS) soldiers and their dependants. Our mission is to provide, either directly or by sign-posting to other partner agencies, holistic welfare, medical, vocational and benevolence support to this community in order to reduce suffering.

This website explains what type of support is available, outlines eligibility and informs potential users about how to access the Aftercare Service.  Please feel free to contact us. In order to be fully eligible for our services you must have served in the UDR or R IRISH (HS) during Operation BANNER (1970 – 2007).  

Note that not all services may be available as certain eligibility criteria must be met, for example, in order to access medical services. If in doubt please ask using the contact details provided.
