Apart from the requirements in our statutes that beneficiaries be British or a dependent (including widows or widowers) and resident in Belgium, there are no rules, except that in practice applicants should have exhausted the normal means of support from family and state agencies Even today, and despite the best efforts of various agencies, there are gaps in the provision of social help that can uniquely affect foreigners in Belgium.


The Royal British Legion Brussels provides welfare for ex-servicemen and women who are in need of support. including hospital and home visits, and financial support.  They provide a social role including trips, lunches and other activities.  They provide military  representation at ceremonies at the war grave and cemeteries in Belgium.



Community Help Service (CHS) is a non-profit organisation established in 1971 as a resource for the English-speaking expatriate population of Belgium. Since then it has developed its telephone Helpline, its Mental Health Centre and its Educational Testing Services for those who find it easier to use English rather than one of the official languages of Belgium.
