The Mission
For ex‐service personnel and their families looking to transition into civilian life, there are three important aspects: health; housing; and hard work. All sides must be in balance, a virtual and virtuous equilateral triangle. Get them right, and you maximize the chances of a successful and sustainable transition. But this is no easy task.

Our Solution:
Our goal is to build a business that provides structure within which Veterans can find stability and employment,
learn new skills and employ existing skills. The business will be based around the establishment of a craft
microbrewery, building on our expertise in this industry, together with a taproom/café and events space. We
will also package a portion of the beer we brew in cans to sell both on‐line and as take‐out.
