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 towards funeral expenses and general debt repay- ment when it is apparent through no fault of their own and in general give help to people who through illness cannot manage their affairs. Additionally, individuals receive regular payments to help with heating, rent and other expenses. GENERAL We are indebted to the Army Benevolent Fund, the Royal British Legion and other Service Charities for their continuing support of our work. A particular word 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. Their reports will eventually determine the extent of help we and other Service Charities should provide. You will notice a donation to our Allied Regiment in Pakistan for earthquake Relief for some of their families who were badly affected. This office could not function without our own case officers Major M H S Ayshford Sanford and Captain A M G Arkwright. 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 generously 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 serving 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. |
