Veterans With Vans®, the journey so far...

Loyalty, Integrity, Discipline, Courage, Selfless commitment & Respect for others.

These are the values and standards that the British Army instils in its officers and soldiers. These are the values and standards that Veterans With Vans® is built upon. At Veterans With Vans® (VWV), our core values are so deeply rooted that we can’t help but uphold them in everything we do. Once a soldier, always a soldier! 

How VWV Began: 

Although VWV was founded in April 2021, our story really began in 2020, at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. 

During the first lockdown, our founder, a British Army Captain with 30+ years service under his belt, found himself placed in a situation by the Army that led to anxiety and depression. Although he had never suffered from mental health issues before, as a trained mental health first-aider, he began to spot some early signs. As difficult as it was to ask for help, he did - initially he was denied help and the situation spiralled and our Captain ended up in hospital. 

In his own words, he was “just looking for a timeout”. 

After ten months of treatment that had put him firmly on the road to recovery, our founder realised that, for the sake of his mental health, the military was no longer a viable option for him and after consultation with the medical authorities, Medical Discharge beckoned! 

The majority of veterans are highly skilled and our founder is no exception..as a former Royal Engineer he’s handy to say the least, tackling anything from painting and decorating, plumbing and tiling to renovating wooden floors, building gates and everything in between. 

The concept of Veterans With Vans® was borne out of a really dark period  but we are now lighting the way for other veterans and those who are looking for an independent and affordable way to earn a living when they leave the forces - every veteran on this site is self-employed.

The Future; 

Our ultimate goal is to be the 'go-to platform' for veterans who want to be self-employed, empowering them to leverage the exceptional skills they worked so hard to acquire whilst serving. Our founder and other veterans have proven the VWV concept works, building up loyal client-bases in just a few short months. Veterans With Vans® delivers value. 

Customers can rely on us for affordable, honest, high-quality services. Veterans get a head-start in building their own fully-branded, cost-effective business in their area. What’s not to love!
