Advice & Support

Are you an ex-officer or dependant seeking advice and/or financial support?

We are here to help you in whatever way we can.

We have a range of advice papers on statutory benefits, and accommodation for the elderly and can also provide individual advice. If we cannot provide the full answer, then we guide you to organisations that can give further help.

Do you need financial assistance?

We can provide:

• One off help for specific household or disability items
• Regular allowances for those on low incomes
• Help towards care home fee shortfalls, where local authority funding does not meet the total fees.
  

All requests are dealt with sensitively and promptly. We will often arrange home visits by volunteer Honorary Representatives, usually ex-officers themselves, who will forward reports to the Department secretaries for the Benevolence Committee to consider the award of grants.

Contact the Benevolence Department for more information.
