Financial Planning Support: Assisting Ex-Forces
Description
Financial planning support is available for ex-forces individuals facing financial difficulties. SSAFA, an organisation that assists military veterans, is approachable and willing to discuss how they can provide help, as stated by Amir, an Army Veteran.
After leaving the Armed Forces, some ex-service personnel may encounter financial challenges. SSAFA's caseworkers can connect you with qualified debt advisors in your area, although they cannot offer advice themselves. Once you've received specialised advice, SSAFA can explore options to assist with priority debts, which are debts that could lead to the risk of losing your home or essential utilities like gas or electricity.
It's important to note that SSAFA's services are specifically available to individuals who have received at least one day's pay from the British Armed Forces (including Reserves) or are immediate family members of military personnel.
