We are deeply grateful to the individuals whose generous support makes our work possible.
These donations help us respond to the needs of serving and ex-serving personnel and their families today, while giving us the confidence to plan for the future. Thanks to this support, we can continue providing essential services and assistance to members of the Armed Forces community whenever they need us.
Your support means everything to military families.
The generosity of our most committed supporters helps us be there for families like Chantelle Wynn’s. Following the loss of her husband, Ryan, Chantelle was left grieving while caring for their two daughters, Rosie and Daisy. An RBL Caseworker was there to help her navigate what came next and access support her family needed.
At Remembrance, we proudly come together to recognise the service and sacrifice of those who have served and those currently serving. We know that service can shape the lives of entire families. When someone serves, their family serves too. Your gift helps ensure that families like Chantelle’s can access practical and emotional support when they need it most. More than a decade later, Chantelle knows the RBL is still there for them.“From the moment she arrived she simply listened to everything I had to say, my frustrations, my upset, my concern for the girls and it was just a relief to have someone turn round and say ‘yes we can help you’.”
Chantelle Wynn, RBL Beneficiary
Thanks to you, the RBL is there for our Armed Forces community, no matter how complex their needs are.
- War and service can leave many in our Armed Forces community with lasting physical wounds and enduring mental health challenges. Through our Recovery Services, including programmes delivered at the Battle Back Centre, veterans and serving personnel can access life-changing recovery support to improve wellbeing, build resilience and move forward with confidence.
- For many, financial crisis is not something that builds slowly. It can happen without warning, whether through a change in benefits, an unexpected bill or a relationship breakdown. For some veterans, the transition from military to civilian life can bring additional challenges. Our Benefits, Debt and Money Advice Service, can step in early to prevent problems escalating, helping beneficiaries manage financial difficulties before they reach crisis point.
- With around one million people currently living with dementia in the UK, demand for specialist support continues to grow. Our Admiral Nurse Service provides specialist dementia support to members of the Armed Forces community living with dementia and those caring for them, helping families understand, manage and prepare for the challenges ahead.
- Securing compensation for service-related injuries or illnesses can be a complex and daunting process. With your support, our War Pensions and Armed Forces Compensation Team can help veterans access specialist advice and guidance to help them secure the recognition and compensation they deserve.
