The RNBT was established under Royal Charter in 1922 to help those who are serving or have served as Warrant Officers and below in the Royal Navy & Royal Marines, and their dependants, who find themselves in need or distress. The Trust’s beneficiaries are known as The RNBT Family. The RNBT provides advice on a wide range of welfare issues fielding hundreds of enquires every year. We assist thousands of people in The RNBT Family who are in need. Our aim is to help them enjoy a reasonable quality of life mainly by providing wide ranging financial assistance. We also care for older people in our own Care Home at Pembroke House, and Almshouse. Donations and legacies make a huge difference, which enable us to continue our crucial work amongst the needier members of the RNBT Family. We are always grateful to receive a donation, no matter how small and are careful to spend our income wisely and effectively, and we always acknowledge each and every contribution.
