Welcome to
The Veterans Charity
Registered Charity No. 1123149
How we help
We can provide support to Veterans who find themselves battling hardship and the distress it causes. Despite being a small charity, we operate nationally throughout the UK including Northern Ireland. We are able to assist with essentials such as food shopping (including pet and baby products where required), utilities support, clothing and footwear, household items and single appliances, smartphones/tablets and calling credit/data.
The recipient of our support must be someone who has served within UK Armed Forces and can verify their service.
When you support The Veterans Charity:
- you help to feed a Veteran and their family with a comprehensive groceries delivery, preventing them from having to continue staring into empty cupboards.
- you help to provide urgently needed utilities support to heat and power a Veteran’s home, reducing financial pressure and distress.
- you help to provide brand new clothing and footwear for a Veteran, bringing a much-needed morale boost and enabling them to attend interviews or get back into life-changing physical exercise.
- you help us to provide a smartphone or tablet to enable a Veteran to build and maintain vital communications with support agencies or family.
When you support The Veterans Charity, you enable wonderful support which can bring huge and rapid relief to Veterans who have found themselves battling hardship and distress!

OUR PARTNERSHIPS
We are very proud to announce a brand new partnership with the Women's Royal Army Corps Association!
The partnership means that women who served within the WRAC and ATS can access immediate needs support via The Veterans Charity who will undertake the necessary casework and delivery of support with funds provided by the WRAC Association.
Our partnership with the RLC Association began in July last year and since then, has enabled us to deliver support to more than 80 Veterans of the RLC and Forming Corps.
If you are or you know a Veteran who served with the RLC or any of the five forming Corps, and may be experiencing hardship, please reach out via the button below.
Our newest partnership is with the Royal Naval Benevolent Trust and since October 2023, has been delivering immediate need support to Veterans and serving personnel of the Royal Navy (including Royal Marines).
The RNBT are providing funding towards each welfare case and enabling us to stand ready to react to the most urgent needs of those who have served in the Senior Service.
