By leaving a gift in your Will to SSAFA, you can help us be there for our Armed Forces family for generations to come.
Leaving a gift in your Will is one of the most effective ways of helping the Armed Forces community overcome their personal challenges and rebuild their lives.
Right now, gifts left in Wills make up as much as a third of SSAFA’s fundraising income. It’s no exaggeration to say we absolutely rely on them.
We help tens of thousands of people every year: serving members of the Armed Forces, veterans, and their families. And the issues they are coming to us with are getting more and more complex.
A gift in your Will can help us meet this need and plan for the future. This extraordinary kind of support will help us carry on offering life-changing help to everyone who needs it – for as long as they need it.
By deciding to leave a gift to SSAFA in your Will, you can help protect our Armed Forces family for generations to come.

When Gwen, a veteran of the ATS, passed away, she left money to SSAFA in recognition of the work we do with the Armed Forces, that were so close to her heart.
Gerrard was training to become an RAF officer when he was diagnosed with a brain tumour. SSAFA was able to help Gerrard's recovery by housing his family close to the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre, at our Norton House.
Serving soldier Craig Meacham and his wife have two children, one with complex health needs. SSAFA was able to send them on a well-deserved holiday along with other service families living with a disability.
