SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity
We provide vital practical and financial to support our Armed Forces community
SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity is a trusted source of support for serving personnel, veterans and their families in their time of need.
Our teams of trained volunteers and employees provide practical, emotional and financial assistance to the Armed Forces community to make sure they never battle alone.
How Your Support Helps
In 2024, we provided life-changing support to over 54,000 people. By raising money for SSAFA, you have extended a helping hand to our young servicemen and women wounded in recent conflicts and provided support for their families, too. Sometimes even the strongest among us need help. When anyone in our Armed Forces family finds themselves in need, we’re the charity they can turn to. Support is there for people at any stage in their military career: from the youngest recruit to the oldest veteran – no one’s service is ever forgotten.
Since 1885 we have provided welfare and wellbeing assistance that is tailored to our Armed Forces community. We know about the unique demands of service life, whether in the UK or overseas, and we continue to meet the demand for support to enable the entire Armed Forces family to thrive. SSAFA understands that behind every uniform is a person. And we are here for that person and their family, any time they need us, and, in any way, they need us.
