The Royal Star & Garter Homes for Disabled Ex-Service Men & Women
The Royal Star & Garter Charity provides outstanding nursing & therapeutic care to the ex-Service Community at its Richmond and Solihull Homes.
Since our foundation in 1916, our priority has been to promote independence and enjoyment of an active lifestyle; ensuring individuals are supported in living life to the full. This vision still remains today to ensure that ex-Service men and women of any age, and the widow(er)s, spouses and civil partners of ex-Service people, will benefit from the Charity's care long into the future
