SSAFA are the UK’s oldest Armed Forces charity. They provide practical help and assistance to anyone who is currently serving or has ever served, even if it was only for a single day. We’re here for them and their families wherever they are.
The Royal British Legion has been a voice for the Armed Forces community for 90 years.The Royal British Legion provides welfare to the whole Armed Forces family – serving, ex-Service and their dependants. We also campaign on issues affecting Service people, are the custodian of Remembrance, run the Poppy Appeal and are one of the UK’s largest membership organisations.
We are The Soldiers’ Charity. We’re here to support the men and women who put everything on the line to defend us, and our country. We’re here for them with lifetime support whether they are serving soldiers or veterans. We offer our hand to them as individuals and, when they need help, for their families. We stand by them in conflict and in peacetime, throughout their lives. The immediate help we offer is a lifeline. But we look to the future too, keeping ahead of the game, finding the best ways to give medical, technical and financial support to give the best possible outlook for the men and women who sacrifice so much for us.
The Royal Naval Benevolent Trust. Men and Women in the Royal Navy and Royal Marines serve their country, often at times of national crisis and danger. The RNBT exists to serve them and their families, by providing support at times of need, throughout their lives.

The Gurkha Welfare Trust cares for ex-Gurkhas and their families. We help repay the debt of honour owed the brave Gurkha soldiers, who have fought for our freedom for nearly 200 years.
