Scottish Government: Scottish Veterans Fund is open

A veterans support fund is now open to help improve the lives of former service personnel and their families.

A key priority for this year’s Scottish Veterans Fund is to make sure veterans and their families are supported in response to the ongoing cost of living crisis.

The fund will also target support for veterans who have left the Services early, as well as promoting collaboration between both veterans charities and non-veterans organisations.

Child Poverty Action Group in Scotland, along with Armed Services Advice Project  have produced a factsheet that tells you how any means-tested benefits (benefits which are affected by your income and savings) are affected by certain armed forces payments administered by the Ministry of Defence (MOD). 

It also tells you where to get help and advice with benefits and tax credits if you are a veteran or the family member of a veteran.
