WELCOME TO SUPPORT OUR
SOLDIERS
Encouraging and providing support for members of the British Armed Forces on overseas Operations and their families at home...
Since our launch in March 2003 over 70,000 morale boosting care parcels
have been sent to those on the frontline in Afghanistan and Iraq.
We support our boys and girls throughout their tour, everyday, not just at Christmas!

** CARE PACKAGES **

Care or welfare packages are much appreciated by members of the Armed Forces serving overseas and are a great way for you to let them know that you're thinking about them. SOS has permission from the MOD and BFPO to send parcels but we do so under very strict guidelines. For more information about sending care or welfare parcels including ideas on what to send to your loved ones please visit our Care Packages page
Please note if you are considering organising a parcel collection through work, school or organisation you must register this with your Local Representative or Head Office before proceeding. We cannot accept multiple parcels or large volumes of parcel fillers which have not been registered with us and which have been prepared without our guidance

Here
at Support Our Soldiers we fill a particular and very important role,
and that is helping on a day to day basis our Servicemen and women
serving overseas. We don't question the reasons for them
being there, we simply do our very best for them and their families.
It should never be
under estimated
what difference a care package or thank you note can make to a soldier
thousands of miles away from home, nor a kind word to a mum who's sick
with worry whilst her son or daughter is away on tour.
With your help we've
sent fridges to
the fobs, provided solar power chargers, filled libraries with books
and dvds, decorated welfare huts, and much, much more. Every
day we receive requests for help and every day we do our very best to
fulfil these.
Through Support Our
Soldiers you can
let our brave boys and girls know just how proud you are of them and
thank them for the dedication, commitment and sacrifices which they
make for us. So please do take a look through the site, check
out the many ways in which you can help, and see how together we can
make a difference.
To
see
how you can help and really make a difference to the boys and girls on
overseas operations and their families at home please visit our Appeals
