The Derby and Derbyshire Disabled Soldiers Settlement makes regular donations to other organisations with similar aims, to support them in providing their own services to those in need. It has helped many organisations across Derbyshire and the surrounding areas, such as SSAFA Derbyshire and the Royal British Legion Derbyshire County.
The kind of support provided by the Settlement depends entirely on the organisation and its needs. For example, the Settlement granted funding for the ‘Battle against Stigma’ project, helping to fund an exhibition at the QUAD in Derby. In doing so, it helped raise awareness of the impact of mental illness on both current and former service personnel.
The Derby and Derbyshire Disabled Soldiers Settlement welcomes applications from organisations similar to those listed above, which we will be pleased to discuss further.
