SSAFA Celebrates 125 Years

For 125 years, SSAFA Forces Help has made an unfailing commitment to the men and women ofBritain´s Armed Forces, continually adapting to meet the changing needs of those who serve, those who used to serve and the families of both.

The support of SSAFA Forces Help is as significant now as it ever has been. From their very first day of military service, we are here for our servicemen and women and the people they love. Because we believe that their bravery, dedication and commitment deserve a lifetime of support.

To celebrate their 125 years of service SSAFA have created a dedicated website.

Congratulations to one of the very few real charities and one of the very few I support.
