✨ A Journey Over a Century in the Making — Introducing the Timeline of Lady Grover ✨

We’ve delved deep into the archives to uncover the fascinating story of Lady Grover — more than 110 years of history, milestones and moments that shaped the organisation we know today.

Our new interactive timeline charts the evolution of a Fund created to support officers’ families, continually adapting to meet the needs of the wider Armed Forces community. ❤️

🕰️ Timeline Highlights:
• 1911: Founded by Helen, Lady Grover, in India to provide essential support to officers’ families who lacked access to affordable care.
• 1912: Following her early passing, the Fund was renamed in her honour and her mission lived on.
• Across the decades: The Fund expanded beyond its original reach, evolving with changes in armed forces life and national healthcare.
• 2024–2025: A new era — now open to all ranks and offering forward-looking options such as Group Membership.

🎯 Whether you’re curious about our origins, the evolution of armed forces health care support, or Lady Grover’s modern role, the timeline offers a compelling look at how far we’ve come.

🕊️ We Remember. We Honour. We Support.

This Sunday 9th November, at the National Service of Remembrance at the Cenotaph in Whitehall, King Charles III led our nation’s two-minute silence in tribute to the courage, sacrifice and steadfast commitment of the Armed Forces community — serving, veterans and families alike.

At Lady Grover, we stand alongside that tribute - to every household, to every veteran, to every serving man or woman: thank you. We remember the fallen and honour the living.

We were honoured to join the Officers' Association's final reception at London's In & Out Club on 5th June - a moving evening that celebrated over a century of unwavering support.

Current and former Presidents, Vice-Presidents, honorary representatives, staff and guests came together to honour the OA's legacy and the thousands of officers and families who have been helped since its founding just after the end of the First World War.

A heartfelt thank you to Air Marshal Sir Baz North and Chairman Alex Spofforth for their inspiring reflections on why the OA's mission matters. We are honoured to be part of the OA's legacy alongside military charities, supporting existing beneficiaries to ensure their on-going support for the years to come.

Together we celebrated camaraderie, service, the spirit of the OA and its enduring legacy.

🇬🇧 Today we join the nation in marking VE Day, honouring the end of WWII in Europe and the extraordinary courage and sacrifice of all who served.

As commemorations continue across the UK this week, we remember those who fought for our freedom—both on the front lines and at home—and recognise the legacy they leave for our Armed Forces community today.

From the jubilant crowds on 8 May 1945 to today's veterans and families, we say thank you.

80 Years On: Remembering the Long March

In January 1945, over 10,000 Allied POWs were forced to march 62 miles in freezing conditions as the Germans evacuated Stalag Luft III in Żagań, Poland, ahead of the advancing Soviet Army. This was the same camp where the famous Great Escape took place a year earlier.

80 years later, Kirsty Turnbull attended the commemorations, retracing the steps of her husband’s uncle, Lt Eric Margetts RN, who endured the march.

A powerful tribute to resilience, sacrifice, and remembrance. Read more: https://www.ladygrover.org.uk/the-long-march-a-commemoration-of-courage-and-resilience/

Lady Grover’s Fund

The Fund was established in 1911 by Lady Grover whilst living in India as an Army wife. She saw the need to help officers meet the costs of hospital and nursing care arising from family illnesses and injury, as there was no Services medical care available to families at that time.

Lady Grover’s Fund has continued to evolve to help officers of all three Services and their dependants to access critical financial support when they need it the most – helping you to provide additional nursing, hospital or domestic care to assist recovery.
