Our care We provide care for ex-Service people and their partners who live with disability or dementia in three state-of-the-art Homes. We work to ensure that ex-Service people and their partners who need our care are looked after and respected as individuals. Their nursing, disability and dementia care needs are met in an appropriate, personalised and compassionate way, by highly skilled, motivated staff. We've been providing care for veterans for over a century. We constantly evolve our services and innovate in our care to meet the present and future needs of our Armed Forces, just as we have for more than 100 years. Our mission Royal Star & Garter provides award-winning care for veterans and their partners who live with disability or dementia, in state-of-the-art Homes. The charity was founded in 1916 to care for the severely injured young men returning from the battlegrounds of the First World War.
