Poppyscotland
Poppyscotland provides life-changing support to our Armed Forces community. We reach out to those who have served, those still serving, and their families, including partners, widows, widowers and children. We assist those from all three arms of the Armed Forces (Royal Navy, Army and Royal Air Force), both regular and reserve, whether difficulties have arisen during time in the Armed Forces or many years later.
Applicants must be resident in Scotland.
Our grants are wide-ranging and can cover areas such as home repairs or mobility adaptations and items, replacement household goods and clothing.
Our Employment Services include a Criminal Convictions Disclosure Service, one-to-one support with an employment advisor for those with mental health issues, a 5-day residential employment skills course, and Employment Support Grants to help you gain the qualifications you need to move into sustainable employment.
In the first instance contact Poppyscotland’s Welfare Services Team on 0131 550 1557.
