About Us
Scotty’s Little Soldiers is a charity dedicated to supporting bereaved military children and young people.
Inspired by the experience of Army widow Nikki Scott, the charity honours husband Corporal Lee Scott’s memory – both as a loyal soldier and a loving father – and provides a practical yet personal way for the public at large to show their appreciation for those brave individuals who make the ultimate sacrifice in the service of their country.
We now know there are over 2,100 newly bereaved military children every year in the UK
Our Mission
To provide relief from the effects of bereavement to young people who have experienced the death of a parent who served with the Armed Forces of the Crown.
#HelpTheirChildrenSmile
Our Promises: We want every bereaved military child to have:
1. Access to the very best health and well-being support
2. Outstanding development opportunities
3. The chance to smile again
How you can help
