Anyone who has served one day and more with the British Armed Forces as a Regular, Reservist, National Serviceman or Merchant Mariner may be entitled to extra opportunities and support, which can help in later life.
We offer older ex-Armed Forces personnel tailored information and advice. We also offer friendship through our Comradeship Circles, which bring older ex-Armed Forces personnel together in group telephone chats.
We lead Unforgotten Forces, Scotland’s charity partnership to improve the health and wellbeing of older ex-Armed Forces personnel. Through this we offer free training, information and networking opportunities to community groups and services that seek to improve how they support older ex-Armed Forces personnel.

Information and advice
Through the Age Scotland helpline, we offer older ex-Armed Forces personnel, their dependent family members and their carers tailored information and advice. We can also connect them with support, where appropriate, from our Armed Forces charity partners.
