MiCAP Aid
Due to our passion for HM forces and charitable aid, MiCAP Group are strong believers in giving free help and support to the following organisations:
Veteran Housing Group
One of the key elements which is missing today is the need to support HM forces personnel and their families in transitioning from the military, straight into civilian supported accommodation. Over 16,000+ service men and women encounter this problem every year.
Veteran Housing Group is a housing provider which employs agents that understand this procedure and tailors to their needs.
What sets Veteran Housing Group apart is the personal service we provide. We understand the challenges faced when transitioning from the military to civilian life. We provide help, advice and guidance that caters for all service leavers. As most private civilian property agents are disconnected from this understanding, Veteran Housing Group give all service personnel the full support they need.

Combat Care
Combat Cares provides a turnkey solution focused on three key areas that are essential to all:
- Mental Combat (Mind Management)
- Family Combat (Taking responsibility)
- Life Combat (Stabilising your future)
What’s evident is many of us could benefit from support and guidance when transitioning into the civilian world. At combat care, we understand the importance of being prepared and view this preparation time as an essential piece of the journey.
Combat Care provides transition skills to help and support both young adults and competent service leavers for the next stages in life.
This support is provided through two online training and development programmes:
- The PAL programme: Preparation for adult life (18 – 24yrs)
- The PCL programme: Preparation for civilian life (24yrs +)

The PCL Programme: Preparation for Civilian Life
PCL is an online personal skills programme that supports military personnel with the transition into civilian life.
The PCL programme is currently under construction. When completed it will have been designed and developed by a group of experts in the mind management field alongside military personnel who have been through the transition.
The programme has wide ranging content combined with a structured approach that can support individuals to further develop their internal programming by elevating their emotional literacy towards the adjustment into civilian life.
Aims and Aspirations of the PCL
First and foremost, the programme is for the participant and about the participant. Individuals are guided to develop their own tools, skills and strategies for themselves.
The programme can support individuals to:

- Bolster their confidence and resilience
- Further develop their emotional intelligence
- Enhance their soft skills toolkit
- Develop a strong reflective mindset- enabling them to make clearer decisions
- Amplify their understanding of their triggers
- Deal with various situations that they may face in their personal or work life, including those curve balls that may come their way
Benefits of the PCL
There can be innumerable benefits to individuals who engage with the PCL including:
- Improved sense of wellbeing and resilience
- Deeper self-awareness and confidence
- Improved social and emotional skills
- Improved focus and concentration
- Being able to make considered decisions

Each individual can be allocated a mentor/facilitator that can support them with the transition enabling them a safe space to talk and work through various emotions that they might be experiencing.
We aim to build a community that will elevate and support our veterans where they feel that they are in the driving seat of their growth.
