Grants were made to individuals ranging from help to pay debt incurred through loss of employment, to installations to houses for those who are disabled. Help was given towards funeral expenses and general debt repayment when it is apparent through no fault of their own and in general gave help to people, who through illness cannot man- age their affairs. GENERAL We are indebted to the Army Benevolent Fund, the Royal British Legion and other Service Charities for their continuing support ofour work. A particularword of thanks must go to the many SSAFA caseworkers, who are all volunteers and who are usually the first point of contact for our beneficiaries.

This office could not function without our own case officers Majors Arkwright and Ayshford Sanford. They are available to scrutinise recommendations for grants and also they will visit and investigate cases when we feel this is necessary. Our thanks must also go to all those retired officers who so gen- erously contribute each year to the Association’s funds. Finally, we must remember that a sizeable proportion of our income comes from the Serving Regiment. Virtually every serv- ing officer and soldier gives up voluntarily one day’s pay per annum to the Association. We would not be able to respond to requests for grants without this financial support.
