Please help us prevent veterans sleeping on the streets this Christmas

Help bring a veteran in from the cold – Donate Now.

£100 saves a veteran from crisis, providing emergency accommodation, medical assistance & food for one night.

£50 pays for a full set of new clothes and shoes.

£10 pays for a hot meal and drink.

As an operational charity committed to responding to crisis without delay, we rely heavily on the generosity of individuals like you – and we never take that kindness for granted. If you can, please donate today and support our lifesaving work.

Payroll giving is an easy and tax-free way to give a regular gift to Veterans Aid.

It allows you to donate straight from your salary before tax is deducted. This means if you choose to donate £10 a month, it will only cost you £8 if you are a basic rate taxpayer, or £6 if you are a higher rate tax payer. The taxman pays the rest.

You choose the amount you want to donate and can change or cancel your gift at any time.
