Veterans & Families Open Day in Grantham

A very big thank you to all the organisations and visitors who attended our Grantham event on 30 October 2024.  It was by far our biggest and best event to date. Thank you again, your continued support makes these events possible and worthwhile.  

Veterans Support Service
receives new grant from
The National Lottery Community Fund

We are very pleased to announce that we have now received a grant from The National Lottery Community Fund which guarantees the future of our organisation for the next 5 years.

Thank you very very much to all players of The National Lottery for making our dreams come true.

Donations

We are now able to receive donations via PayPal using the link below. All money donated will be used 100% towards providing direct support to beneficiaries (veterans and their families) and not core costs! For example, donated funds have been used to provide emergency fuel and food support as an interim measure; pending a more permanent solution with our partner organisations. 

Also, if you select the friends/family option when making a payment, we will receive a bigger percentage of your donation. Thank you. 

We now have four charity boxes located at the following places:

  • The Crown Hotel in Holbeach PE12 7LW
  • Michelle’s Snack Bar on the A17 Washway Road Saracen’s Head PE12 8BB
  • The Shoppe 14 Market Place, Spalding PE11 1SL
  • The Burghley Arms Inn, 6 North Street, Bourne PE10 9EA.

A very big thank you to all managers / owners for allowing us to place our charity boxes on your premises.
