The Veterans Depot is the first and only dedicated Armed Forces Community space in North Devon.
Built by volunteers with funding from B&Q, The National Lottery Community Fund, The Veterans Depot is located at our office premises in the heart of Barnstaple (EX31 2AS).
The Veterans Depot is North Devon's first and only dedicated space for Veterans and members of the wider Armed Forces Community and is a remarkable effort by a small but fabulous group of volunteers and businesses who have given incredible support to make our idea a reality.
We will be hosting regular Breakfast Clubs, Drop-In Sessions, collaborative events with other organisations, volunteering opportunities, activity groups and much more. Please be sure to follow The Veterans Depot on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter) to keep up to date with events and news!

We were very proud to host the first Veterans Breakfast Club in The Veterans Depot on Saturday 13th April. Members of the build team, sponsors and donors were invited to enjoy a breakfast and give the facilities (and our chef!) a thorough test.
