Would you like to support people who have served in the Armed Forces? You don’t need a military background, just some spare time occasionally, and an ability to get on with people from diverse backgrounds and age groups. If so, this could be the role for you.
What is a Helper?
SSAFA Helpers provide support to local SSAFA branches, so that the service to veterans and their families can run smoothly. Perhaps you could help out at an event, take care of some office admin, or give a talk about SSAFA?
Why do we need you?
We’ve been supporting the Armed Forces community since 1885. Our clients come from all backgrounds and age groups and may have served in WW2 or in a more recent conflict like the Falklands or Afghanistan.
There are SSAFA branches throughout the UK and overseas who support local volunteers to deliver services to veterans, serving personnel and their families. Some branches are divided into smaller divisions to ensure the best local service delivery. Each branch has a team of volunteer caseworkers, support volunteers, executive roles, and fundraisers.
We have peak times throughout the year when we need extra volunteers. Whether you enjoy organising behind the scenes or being out meeting the public, we need people who can offer some time on a flexible basis.
When would you be needed and where would you be based?
This role will suit you if you are looking to volunteer on a flexible basis as and when you are available, and we need extra help. You may be based in an office, at home, or out and about at events.

 - Giving talks about SSAFA to schools and local groups
 - Helping with office tasks like stuffing envelopes, ordering marketing materials
 
The remit of this role may change over the next 12-18 months depending on the outcome of a trial currently being undertaken.
What could you gain from this volunteering role?
- Support people in your community with a military background
 - Support and friendship from your local SSAFA branch and the wider SSAFA community
 - Experience that you can highlight on your CV and in job interviews.
 - Better physical and mental health – studies show that volunteers live longer and experience lower levels of stress and depression!
 
What training and support would you receive?
- Mandatory on-line training modules to complete at home, so you are up to date on how to keep clients, their families safe and personal information safe.
 - Local induction
 - Reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses
 - Volunteers will be covered by SSAFAs Public Liability Insurance whilst carrying out the role.
 
What are we looking for?
- Friendly and approachable people with a cheerful attitude
 - Good spoken English
 - Ability to represent SSAFA and its values to potential clients, their families, other agencies, potential volunteers and potential funders.
 - Ability to keep within the boundaries of the role with regards to safeguarding, giving advice etc.
 - Reliable attitude, keep appointments, update the branch regarding your availability.
 - Ability to maintain confidentiality and keep information safely.
 - Access to transport if needed for your role.
 
We welcome volunteers of all backgrounds, abilities, races, sexual orientations, socio-economic backgrounds, and faiths and none. SSAFA are committed to making reasonable adjustments to support volunteers with disabilities to have access to the same opportunities and experiences as volunteers who do not.
Minimum Age: 18

We’re on the lookout for a volunteer who’s keen to make a real difference in our communities — and pick up some new skills along the way!
This is a unique opportunity to gain a recognised qualification while helping residents at Asquith Court and Charlotte Court enjoy regular chair-based exercise sessions. These schemes don’t currently have any sessions, but they’re really keen to get started — ideally once a month to begin with (and maybe more if it’s a hit!).
We’ll support you every step of the way, including covering the cost of your Amac Certificate in Chair-based Exercise Instructing - which you can complete online at your own pace. Once you’re qualified, we’ll work with you to build a schedule that fits around your availability.
Each session will last up to an hour, and we’ll also cover your travel expenses between the two schemes.
Because you’ll be working with potentially vulnerable residents, you’ll need to be 18 or over to take on this role.
If you’re passionate about helping others stay active, feel good, and have fun — we’d love to hear from you!

Photographic experience is essential, as is having your own equipment. In addition, we would love our volunteer to share our passion for One Medicine.
What we want from you
The volunteer photographer/videographer will produce a portfolio of high quality, varied and creative images or video clips from the events that will capture the atmosphere of the day. After the event, you will undertake any editing needed and then share the completed portfolio with us. The images will be used for promotional purposes, so it’s a great chance to build your portfolio and share your photography.

- Gain valuable experience in an event environment.
 - Have your work showcased across our platforms and build your portfolio.
 - Gain a client testimonial from Humanimal Trust.
 - Use your skills for a good cause.

The first opportunity is at our Golf Day on Thursday, 18 September 2025 at Old Thorns Hotel and Resort in Hampshire, but we do have other events throughout the year, so this role could lead to further opportunities for the right person.
Humanimal Trust drives collaboration between vets, doctors and researchers so that all humans and animals benefit from equal and sustainable medical progress, but not at the expense of an animal’s life. This is One Medicine.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
