The Naval Children’s Charity are delighted to announce a three-year joint funding pledge from Greenwich Hospital and Royal Navy Royal & Marines Charity (RNRMC), who have committed £720,000 per year for three years, totalling £2,160,000, to support their Benevolence Grants Programme. This funding will enhance the vital support provided to Royal Navy and Royal Marines families.
This essential funding will enable The Naval Children’s Charity to deliver direct financial support to any Naval family that may find themselves in a time of need or crisis.
CEO of The Naval Children’s Charity, Clare Scherer, shared her heartfelt appreciation:
“We are incredibly grateful to RNRMC and Greenwich Hospital for their generous commitment. This funding will allow us to continue providing essential support to Royal Navy and Royal Marines families, ensuring they have the resources they need during times of difficulty. It’s through partnerships like this that we can make a tangible difference in the lives of those who serve or have served.”
Director of Greenwich Hospital, Deirdre Mills, said;
“Greenwich Hospital is pleased to collaborate with RNRMC in supporting the Naval Children’s Charity’s Benevolence Grants Programme. This funding ensures that serving and former Royal Navy and Royal Marines families facing hardship can access the financial support they need, when they need it most. By working together, we can make a critical difference to the lives of more children in the Royal Navy community.”
CEO of RNRMC, Andrew Jameson said:
“We are delighted to work with Greenwich Hospital once again to support the Naval Children’s Charity with this important grant. Their work in supporting the children of Naval families is truly amazing, making a real difference in their lives. We have had a long and meaningful relationship with the Naval Children’s Charity, and we are pleased to continue standing alongside them in their vital work.”
The Naval Children’s Charity has been helping Naval children for 200 years, this includes serving personnel and veterans of the Naval Service (Royal Navy, Royal Marines, QARNNS, WRNS, Reserves or Royal Fleet Auxiliary). With this funding pledge, this work can continue helping to make a lasting difference in children and young people’s lives.
