We Battle Together

When families need support, SSAFA stands beside them.


Thank you for visiting the SSAFA Autumn Appeal 2026 webpage!


Here you can watch our videos about soldier Gabby and her sailor partner Tyler's experience being supported by SSAFA, and of the community garden at the Gordon Messenger Centre, donated thanks to a generous Gift in Will made by SSAFA volunteer June Best.

Support SSAFA today so that we can continue to provide community services to both veterans and serving personnel, as well as their families.  Even the smallest donation can be used to show all the members of our Armed Forces that they will never battle alone. 


 


Support our Armed Forces with SSAFA


Thanks to the fantastic backing we receive from our incredible supporters, SSAFA is able to help people in the Armed Forces community, like Gabby and her family, and all those who benefit from the community garden at the Gordon Messenger Centre.


Our mission is to be the most trusted source of support for all those who have served our nation, so that our Armed Forces know that we are here for them and their families, in times of peace and war.


Help SSAFA support our Armed Forces


We help fresh recruits in their first days of service, experienced service personnel in times of crisis, those who take their first steps back into civilian life, and older veterans with their unique set of concerns and needs.


If you can, please make a single or monthly donation to SSAFA, and be part of our mission to look after the brave men, women and children of our Armed Forces community.

Thank you for supporting SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity.


Every day, members of our Armed Forces make sacrifices on behalf of us all. As long as they continue to serve, SSAFA will continue to stand beside them and their families.

But we cannot do this alone. It is only through the kindness and commitment of supporters like you that we can continue to provide life-changing support to those who serve, have served, and the people who depend on them.

Because of you, we can help ensure that the Armed Forces community never battles alone.

From all of us at SSAFA, thank you for your generosity and ongoing support.
