What we do https://thenotforgotten.org/how-we-help/what-we-do/concerts/
Through social activities and challenge holidays, The Not Forgotten combats isolation and loneliness amongst the Armed Forces community.
We support any serving man or woman who is wounded, injured or sick and any veteran with a disability, illness or infirmity; whatever the cause and whenever it arose. Any serving or former member of The Royal Navy, The Royal Marines, The British Army, The Royal Air Force and The Merchant Navy, both Regular and Reserve Forces, may be eligible for our help.
Our motto ‘From Comradeship To Challenge’ illustrates the variety and breadth of the support we offer. Some of our activities provide a physical challenge and the opportunity to develop self-confidence, others are of a more social nature aimed at fostering camaraderie and friendship; many offer both challenge and comradeship. Each of our events and activities is intended to restore confidence, enhance wellbeing, boost morale and improve the chances of the serviceman or woman and their family enjoying a normal, if not better, life.

Applying for a Television, Television Licence or Tablet
Applications for a TV Licence, Television or Tablet must be submitted to The Not Forgotten by a caseworker from SSAFA or The Royal British Legion. They will apply – on your behalf – for our TV Licence, Television or Tablet scheme, by sending us what is known as a “Form A”. It is important that they clearly state if the application is for both a television and a television licence.
To qualify for a television or licence, an individual must be an eligible TNF veteran beneficiary (any former service personnel with a disability or illness) who is financially limited and whose wellbeing would benefit from a TV Licence or Television.
To qualify for a tablet, an individual must be an eligible TNF veteran beneficiary (any former serviceman or woman with a disability or illness) who is ‘digitally isolated’, financially limited and whose wellbeing, social engagement and employment opportunities would benefit from the tablet. For the purposes of this programme ‘digitally isolated’ means that the individual does not own or have regular access to a computer, laptop, tablet or the internet.
Televisions, television licences or Tablets will be available following receipt of an application from an established charity or caseworker who has justified the need in line with the above.
The Not Forgotten funded TV Licences are valid for a minimum duration of one year. If you already have a Not Forgotten TV Licence that has expired, you will need to begin a new application so that your caseworker can confirm that you still meet the criteria.
