Story

First Defence Finance is a not-for-profit financial co-operative, which means we are owned and run by our members. We offer fair and affordable savings accounts and loans for serving members of the Armed Forces, veterans and their families.

We've been helping the Armed Forces community with their finances since 2015, and we have seen first hand some of the challenges that they face. We feel very passionately about supporting HM Armed Forces in any way we can, which is why some of our team have decided to walk to support SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity.

Any support that you can give would be really appreciated!

Here's some more information about SSAFA:
