There is also a range of support available through the Legion’s Women’s Section.
Dependants can include children, spouses and partners, including widows or widowers. Other dependants also include relatives, those living with serving or ex-serving personnel or those dependent on them.
Carers are those who have an ongoing caring responsibility for someone in the Armed Forces community.
