Poppy Advice - Pensions, Benefits & Compensation Claims

We offer a broad range of advice in areas of interest to the serving and ex-Service community.

The Legion's Poppy Advice section helps ex-Service people make new War Pension claims, gives free representation at appeal hearing cases and helps with war widows' pension claims and compensation cases.

Every year we help 5,500 ex-Service men and women with new War Pension claims and give free representation at some 5,000 appeal cases.

Because we care, we'll campaign for your claim. And we can provide a wide variety of advice on your rights, the benefits you could receive and other entitlements.

There is also a confidential, face-to-face Benefits and Money Advice Service available to help people manage their personal finances.

Our newest service is the War Pensions and Compensation Clinics. These clinics are held nationwide on a regular basis and give you the opportunity to discuss face to face any issues pertaining to War Disability Claims or Appeals, AFCS Claims or Appeals and compensation matters in general.
