Why support SSAFA

Every donation you give makes a difference to the lives of those who have served our nation.

Did you know?

Thanks to the generosity of people like you, we can help thousands of British Armed Forces service personnel, veterans and their families when they come to us in times of need. In 2023 alone we supported more than 53,000 people in the military community - that’s over 145 people every day. But we can only do it with your support.

Your donation could

Help the wounded

SSAFA's Norton house provides accommodation to the families of wounded service men and women, helping them heal and recuperate quicker with their loved ones at hand.

Support a veteran

SSAFA provides support to veterans old and new, mentoring them in their transition to civilian life, and providing support and guidance through the rest of their lives.

Help a family

Military families face a unique set of problems related to deployment, combat stress and even institutionalisation - SSAFA provides guidance and assistance as experts in military social work.

Fund a caseworker

SSAFA caseworkers are the men and women who provide our clients with the critical, face-to-face advice, guidance and companionship they so desperately need.

Maintain Forcesline

Forcesline is the first point of contact for many of SSAFA's clients, providing free, confidential and expert help and direction to those in need of our many different services.
