Help for Heroes: Veterans' Mobility Fund
Created: 05/02/2026The Veterans’ Mobility Fund (VMF) is administered by Help for Heroes with the support and partnership of Blesma and is funded by the government through the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust (AFCFT).
The fund is designed to support veterans with physical disabilities resulting from illness or injury sustained during service. It does this by providing life-changing grants or equipment not usually available on the NHS.
The VMF includes equipment which is not provided through the NHS, such as specialist wheelchairs and mobility scooters. It can also include orthotics, like splints and braces.
Who can apply?
The fund is available to veterans who have a service-attributable condition - which is linked to the equipment required - or veterans who receive or are applying for a War Pension or appropriate Armed Forces Compensation.
How to apply
Applying is a two stage process. You can begin your application on their website.
If you are unable to complete an online form, please call their helpline on 0300 303 9888 to discuss alternative options.
