KubeNet has been appointed as the new managed IT services provider for Erskine Veterans Charity.

One of Scotland’s most respected veterans organisations, Erskine Veterans Charity supports more than 1300 veterans and their families each year.

The charity offers specialist care homes, supported housing, community and activity centres, transitional accommodation for veterans at risk of homelessness and home support services across multiple locations.



Following a competitive tender process, KubeNet was selected to deliver a modern, secure and resilient managed IT service to support the charity’s daily operations.

The agreement includes service desk support, proactive infrastructure and network management, enhanced cyber security, on-site engineering and a clear roadmap for future improvement.

As part of the transition, all three members of Erskine’s internal IT team will transfer to KubeNet under TUPE arrangements, helping to ensure continuity during the handover.

They will continue to support Erskine throughout the handover period before becoming fully embedded members of Team Kube.

Julie Inglis, director at KubeNet, said: "Erskine is one of Scotland’s most respected and impactful charities.

"We are honoured to support their mission by providing secure, modern and resilient IT services across all locations.

"Our role is to give Erskine’s staff, volunteers and residents the confidence that technology will always be there for them."

As cyber security was a key component of the charity’s requirements, KubeNet will introduce improved monitoring, strengthened policies and a proactive approach to maintaining resilience and protecting sensitive systems and data.

The partnership will also extend beyond IT services.

KubeNet will support Erskine Veterans Charity through its wider CSR commitments, including fundraising initiatives, staff volunteering days and community engagement.



Eddie Foy, head of digital and technology at Erskine Veterans Charity, said: "Everything we do begins with the veterans we support, and the people who care for them.

"To deliver that care with dignity and compassion, our teams need technology they can trust every single day.

"KubeNet showed not only the technical strength we were looking for, but a genuine understanding of what Erskine stands for.

"Their commitment to protecting our organisation, supporting our staff and contributing to our wider mission made this partnership feel like the right step for our future.

"This is about more than IT services - it’s about strengthening the foundations that allow us to give veterans the quality of life they deserve."

Erskine Veterans Charity was founded in 1916 and has supported generations of veterans and their families across Scotland.
