LIVE24SEVEN // Business CHAR I T Y OF THE MONTH – AB F


Why does ABF, the soldiers charity exist?


ABF gives a lifetime of support to soldiers and veterans from the British Army and their immediate families when they are in need. They make grants to individuals through their Regiments and Corps and support a wide range of specialist charities that sustain the British Army ‘family’, both at home and around the world.


ABF takes pride in being responsive, making a difference at a critical point in peoples’ lives. They have been doing this since 1944, working with veterans of every conflict and envisage continuing doing so for the ‘long haul’; supporting all future generations of British soldiers and their dependants.


The charity’s vision is, “That all soldiers, veterans and their immediate families should have the opportunity to avoid hardship and enjoy independence and dignity.” Regional activities raise considerable funds and as importantly, increase public awareness of the Charity’s work in every region of the British Isles and beyond.

Total charitable expenditure of around £9.2 million has gone directly to supporting more than 4,500 individuals and funding 92 charities and organisations that delivered help on their collective behalf. Overall more than 75,000 people have been touched by their support – spread worldwide across 59 countries.


Last year the oldest beneficiary was 105, and youngest was nine months. 18% of grants have gone to the Serving community and after another successful year they saw a robust income of £19.3 million and further replenishment of their Reserves after the need to draw on them during the Iraq and Afghan campaigns.


Every year the number and diversity of events are run by a team of regional staff while volunteers and supporters continue to grow. The Early, Early Christmas Fair, raises money for ABF The Soldiers’ Charity, in the Cotswolds in September.
