For many individuals, service in the Army takes a toll on soldiers and their families. But there is a significant amount of help available, especially if you know where to look. From local assistance within the battalions, to major cases of need that are supported by the Regiment’s Benevolent Trust.

Before any Benevolence case is considered, it must be supported by a case worker report, normally from SSAFA . This report provides the Regimental Benevolence Committee in RHQ York with independent assessment of circumstances and Need.
Any request for support that are passed directly to RHQ, AHQ or Yorkshire Regiment Association or any other source, will be referred to SSAFA or the RBL for the applicant to be visited and a report made. Exceptionally, request for support may be received from Unit Welfare Officers, or through the Yorkshire Regiment Association
