  • Can't really advise on benefits, but my OH suggests you contact the Royal British Legion to see if they can give you any advice.
    I believe you should be entitled to some resettlement, so your Admin office should be able to advise on that.
    Have you posted on the Benefits forum? Someone there might be able to help with any possible benefit entitlements.
    From Starrystarrynight to Starrystarrynight1 and now I'm back...don't have a clue how!
  • hi if the need for your op is a result of being in the army then you may be able to claim through the armed forces compensation scheme. definatley get in touch with the british legion they are a fantastic help and a great source for answers x good luck x
