ORVIAFOUNDATION
VETERANS & SERVICE FAMILIES

Turn Service experience into practical opportunity.

ORVIA is veteran-founded, an Armed Forces Covenant signatory and an ERS Bronze Award holder. Foundation exists to turn those commitments into practical routes — not decoration.

01

Service to civilian

Help translate lived experience into civilian capability, language and evidence.

  • Skills translation
  • Mentoring
  • Career-change support
  • Understanding civilian role requirements
02

Service to practice

Where available, structured exposure and supervised practice can help people build evidence of competence.

  • Training
  • Supervised practice
  • Mentoring
  • Placements
  • Competency development
03

Families matter too

Service life affects partners, spouses and families. Foundation pathways are intended to recognise that wider reality as programmes develop.

  • Military spouses and partners
  • Reservists and families
  • People returning after disruption
  • Public-service transition
04

More than veterans

Veterans are a major part of the story, not the whole story. Foundation also exists for appropriate people excluded by cost, circumstance or unconventional career history.
