The Veterans Association
Key takeaways
- The Veterans Association says it supports armed forces veterans and their families regardless of branch, background or service history, so a request is most likely to fit if it reaches veterans or their families and relates to its stated themes of veteran wellbeing, mental health, employment support, housing support and community connection.
- Its stated priority is the United Kingdom.
- Neither the annual report nor its website publishes its total giving or a grant range, so a request should be sized to your own costs rather than to any published amount.
- It says it can give grants to individuals and organisations, including emergency grants, but publishes no application process, so the sensible first step is to use the contact shown to ask how to apply before sending a proposal.
- Organisations whose work does not reach veterans or their families are unlikely to fit its stated focus.
