About the Role
Our Recovery College was the first of its kind for veterans and their families. Our free courses provide students with education on a recovery focussed topic plus tools, tips and strategies to self-manage. We enable people to develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence to help them on their recovery journey and to live independently. Veterans and family members with lived experience of the subject matter help design and deliver the courses alongside their Help for Heroes colleagues, and where necessary external experts.

Help for Heroes believes those who serve our country deserve support when they’re wounded. Every day, men and women have to leave their career in the Armed Forces as a result of physical or psychological wounds. The Charity helps them, and their families, to recover and get on with their lives. It has already supported more than 26,500 people and won’t stop until every wounded veteran gets the support they deserve.
