The RNBT Family
From the day they join the Royal Navy or Royal Marines,
all ratings and other ranks are part of the RNBT Family;
so are their wives, husbands and dependant children.
For the rest of their lives they may seek help from the
RNBT at times of need.
The RNBT Family, which numbers about 2 million, may
be assisted in the following ways:
• Financial grants covering a very wide range of individual
needs
• Regular payments supplementing the income of older
people
• Care of older people at Pembroke House, the RNBT’s
care home near Chatham
• Financial assistance to other organisations which assist
the RNBT Family
• Advice on welfare matters.
Financial Help
The RNBT gives almost 100 grants every week to
members of the RNBT Family who need financial help, in
a variety of circumstances, including:
• Rent and mortgage payments
• Food, Clothing and Fuel
• Child care
• Medical treatment and disability aids
• Respite and recuperative holidays
• Household goods and house repairs
• Training for second careers
• Debts
In addition to these one off grants, annuities (or regular
grants) of £130 each quarter are paid to assist more than
1100 older people on very low incomes.
The annual total of all grants is about £2 million.
For further information please call the Grants
Administrators on 023 92660296 for advice and
assistance.
