Argyll & Bute Branch |
 |
|
| Who we are: | We are the Argyll & Bute Branch of The Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Families Association (SSAFA) Forces Help. The Association is the national charity helping and supporting those who serve in our Armed Forces, those you used to serve and the families of both. We have specially trained volunteers who provide help in all manner of situations. Anyone who approaches us is treated with sensitivity, respect and absolute confidentiality. |
| Where we are: | The Branch covers Argyll, Bute, Cowal, Islay, Jura, Kintyre, Lorn & Mull. |
| Who we help: | |
 |
One day's paid service in any of our Armed Forces is all that is needed for you and your dependants to be eligible for assistance from SSAFA Forces Help.
Close relatives, widows, widowers and divirced partners of the person who served are also often eligible. |
| What we do: | |
|
We take action, on request, whenever there is hardship, loneliness or need. The help we give varies enormously; from financial assistance - such as paying a heating bill for a widow or assistance with the costs of household effects - to help for children with additional needs, to emotional support for the lonely, ill or bereaved. In all cases, the criterion for our assistance is need and our support and advice are completely confidential. |
 |
| Do you need help? | If you think that you could be eligible for our help please get in touch by telephone or e-mail, or if you know someone who may need our assistance, please contact us or tell them about us. |
