The team at SSAFA Oxfordshire is dedicated to helping veterans, service personnel, and their families, in the local community. Our commitment is to provide support with experienced, non-judgemental and friendly advice, as well as a variety of practical services that cover a range of emotional, practical and financial issues. We are proud to say that we help our Armed Forces family whenever they need us, for as long as they need us. Here at SSAFA Oxfordshire, we have a variety of different personalities that together make our team so special.
After 26 working as an RAF policeman at RAF Benson, Paul joined SSAFA in 2017, as a Caseworker. “The best part is knowing that I have helped my clients with their enquiry, and knowing that they have a good start to their new life".
Susan was born in Abingdon and joined the Army in 1983. She served for 28 years before becoming a Welfare support officer for SSAFA. You will often see Susan on a bike or walking for some SSAFA cause.
After 34 years in the Army, Ian joined SSAFA, where he is the Branch Chairman. His hobbies include all outdoor pursuits including taking part in the initial Ride to the Somme.
We love what we do. The sense of pride you get when you know you’ve helped someone get their independence and dignity back is extraordinary. Through volunteering for SSAFA Oxfordshire, you’ll have the chance to meet some truly inspiring people, with stories you’ll never forget. You’ll also gain new skills and experiences, but most importantly, you’ll make a difference in the lives of those who have dedicated their lives, often at great sacrifice, to protect and serve our country.
You can help people in need by visiting, listening and talking to them, to work out the best ways to support them.
Help us by organising local events, communicating, liaising with key stakeholders and ensuring the smooth running of the branch.
