Tyting farm is situated in the countryside on the outskirts of Guildford, Surrey.

 

Each year on average 24,000 persons leave the armed forces and re-enter civilian life. Veterans are 3 times more likely to commit suicide and in recent years the amount of PTSD suffers have increased dramatically. There is currently only 9 after care facilities in the whole UK. None of which are in or around London.

​

Tyting farm provides all the essential after care methods. In the Gym there are 3 progression connections building up strength to access the calming roof viewing station via The Ramp, The Stairs and The climbing wall.

 

Through their time visiting this rehabilitation day centre these 3 progressions will encourage them to push themselves aiding physical rehabilitation with additional help from the hydrotherapy pool.

 

On the boundary of the centre are 4 anger pods where veterans go to deal with their anger problems in a safe, segregated environment.

Not only do veterans suffer physical disabilities they suffer from mental issues as well. To help manage this stress is a meditation room over looking the surrounding beauty, a multi faith worship room and supportive group therapy hubs. In the centre is a memorial space to pay tribute to all those we have lost.
