SSAFA

At SSAFA, with our volunteers and supporters, we’re here for our serving personnel, veterans and their families so they never battle alone. We provide welfare and wellbeing support to those who need us, in communities across the UK and abroad.

Housing support

Housing support
Life after serving in the Armed Forces can be challenging, and some ex-service personnel can find themselves unemployed and homeless. SSAFA is here to help them get back on their feet, including helping them secure a safe place to call home.

Providing a lifeline

Providing a lifeline
Forcesline is our free and confidential helpline and email service, outside of the chain of command. It provides emotional support to those in the Armed Forces family who are feeling lonely, isolated or are struggling to cope with everyday life.

Financial support

Financial support
When any person in our Armed Forces family is in financial hardship and is struggling to feed their family or pay household bills, they can turn to SSAFA for support. Your donations will ensure they do not confront life’s darkest challenges alone.
