Working together to strengthen our impact

How the Statutory Grants team supports you locally.

We know that the volunteer network are at the heart of SSAFA. Your local knowledge, contacts and experience are key to helping us build strong partnerships with statutory organisations and unlock funding that benefits you locally.

Growing connections and securing funding

Building on the connections you have established, we work with councils, NHS trusts and Integrated Care Boards as well as other statutory organisations to find funding that helps SSAFA support people locally:

  • we work with the regional colleagues and yourselves to understand what is happening in your area and what the local needs are
  • by connecting us with your contacts in local services we can have conversations around their priorities and understand if there are any opportunities for collaborative working
  • funding stays regional; any funding raised in a region goes back into services in that same area.

We can help you strengthen your relationships with local statutory services and help the charity grow its impact in your local area.
