OUR FUNDERS
The ADVANCE Study has been made possible through the generous support of numerous organisations committed to helping veterans and service personnel. We are grateful to all our funders whose contributions ensure the continued success and growth of the study.
The ADVANCE Charity, alongside its Trustees, wishes to extend its’ thanks to the following key organisations for their invaluable funding and support:
The Headley Court Charity
Our primary and principal funder, The Headley Court Charity funds medical rehabilitation of flying personnel of the Royal Air Force and other Armed Forces of the Crown.
LIBOR Grant
LIBOR funding has benefited hundreds of organisations and projects aiding millions of people, including the Armed Forces community, Emergency services, and the general public.
Help for Heroes
Help for Heroes' mission is to help members of the Armed Forces community live well after their service. Help for Heroes were one of our founding funders.

Nuffield Trust for the Forces of the Crown
The Nuffield Trust finances recreational and welfare amenities and facilities that provide lasting benefit to the Armed Forces. Their commitment to advancing health and well-being for those who serve has been essential to our progress.
Forces in Mind Trust (FiMT) and The National Lottery Community Fund
FiMT and The National Lottery Community Fund have supported our long-term vision, ensuring the study's continued impact on veterans' lives
Blesma – The Limbless Veterans
Blesmas' mission is to help serving and ex-service personnel who have suffered limb loss or loss of sight, hearing, or speech to lead independent and fulfilling lives. Their support has been critical to expanding our research and care.
The UK Ministry of Defence
Our MoD backing reflects the importance of research into the well-being of current and former service members.
The Office for Veterans' Affairs (OVA)
As an advocate for veteran welfare, OVA's contribution has further strengthened our mission to serve those who served.
A Mission Powered by Collaboration
The success of the ADVANCE Study is a testament to the dedication of our funders. Without their generosity and shared vision, we would not be able to make the strides we have in understanding and improving the long-term health of our veterans.
Thank you to all our partners who make this possible.
