Armed Forces Charities benefit from over £270K contribution from Defence Discount Service
Defence Discount Service (DDS), the official MoD discount
service, has contributed over £275,000 to military projects that support
current and former members of the armed forces in the last 12 months.
Since its launch in 2012, DDS has given a percentage of all revenue to
charitable causes that support the wellbeing of the Armed Forces community,
endeavouring to help those who’ve served our nation both at home and abroad.
In the last year, DDS has donated funds to The Army Central Fund, RAF Central Fund, the Permanent Joint Headquarters Operations Welfare Fund and The Royal Navy.
The funds will be used for a range of projects, including providing mobile
workout stations to deployed RAF personnel, supporting physical activity, and
addressing social isolation with children and young people.
Money will also go towards the Defence Medical Welfare Service, which provides practical
and emotional support to members of the Armed Forces community on a health
treatment pathway; the Warrior Programme, which offers mental strength and
resilience training to those affected by stress and anxiety; and the Army Welfare Service, which provides community support
through various initiatives.
One example of an activity providing this support is Out of School Adventures,
which offers high-quality activities for children and young people during
school holidays, promoting wellbeing and addressing social isolation.
