£320,379 Donated Since Inception

These most recent donations bring the grand total of RSS charitable contributions to £320,379 with every pound going to British Armed Forces charities that make a real difference to the lives of those who have served our country. This remarkable achievement has been made possible through the generosity of British businesses and the general public, who have supported RSS by purchasing and sponsoring the production British flag lapel badges and regimental notebooks—our two flagship fundraising products.

• The lapel badges are proudly worn by thousands across the UK as a daily symbol of support for our Armed Forces.

• The regimental notebooks, featuring the crests and colours of various British regiments, have become a popular item for those wishing to honour military heritage in a practical and meaningful way.
  

Each purchase contributes directly to our mission—and together, these small acts of solidarity add up to life-changing impact.

A Message from Our Managing Director James Caddick, Managing Director from The Regiment Support Service said: "Supporting these exceptional charities is an honour. Each donation represents more than just a number—it’s a lifeline for someone in our Armed Forces community facing hardship, made possible by the generosity of our supporters. Whether it's a lapel badge proudly worn or a regimental notebook used daily, every purchase is a personal act of appreciation for those who serve. Reaching the £320,000 milestone is something we’re extremely proud of, and we’re fully committed to building on this success in the years ahead.”

At RSS, we believe in doing more than simply remembering—we believe in taking action. Thank you to everyone who continues to support us. Together, we are helping those who’ve served, stand tall once again.
