How does the British Legion make a difference?
- Since 2003, the Legion provided financial help to 10,000 Service personnel, recent veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan and their families.
- We represented one-third of all the appeals for higher compensation payments for injuries suffered in Afghanistan.
- Our campaigning has led to increased compensation awards which have placed an extra £7.5 million in the pockets of the most seriously injured.
- Our campaigns are also resulting in £24 million in improvements to the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre at Headley Court in Surrey We're also securing priority NHS health care for wounded veterans, better support for bereaved families, and better access to mental health care for veterans.
