BBC NEWS 'WAR VETERANS PENSION PROTEST'

MISSION STATEMENT

For UK ex-regular Service Veterans who in the period 1949 to end of Tax Year March 1975 completed less than 22 years service (16 years for commissioned officers) the Association conducts a campaign seeking to rectify the inequality in occupational pro-rata pensions currently denied  by Government. In many cases this same anomaly applies also to those who served for a minium of a further 2 years beyond April 1975.

The Association also seeks to provide advice to Veterans and their families on non-service matters where possible.

MEMBERSHIP

Membership of the Association is open to all UK ex-Service Men, Women and their families on application. All applications shall be subject to the approval of the Executive Management Committee
