Hampshire FA Benevolent Fund
Injured ? Hampshire FA’s
Benevolent Fund Can Help.
There comes a time in everyone’s life when a little extra cash
would be most welcome and the Benevolent Fund is a source of
help at these difficult times.
Thanks to the generosity of our members, grants are
available to Players, Coaches, Club Officials and Referees who
find themselves in urgent need following injury.
All donations are gratefully received whatever the amount
and please forward any donations to the Finance Director at the
County Office. Please follow the procedure below to make an application to the
Benevolent Fund:
1.
The Club Secretary, having ascertained the
Player/Official is, or may be suffering financial hardship
through the injury, should apply to the Association or the Area
Benevolent Officer for an application form.
2.
The Application Form must be completed by the
Player/Official and endorsed by the Secretary of the Club.
All information asked for must be given, and care must be
exercised in the matter of player’s income when in employment,
and amounts received while incapacitated, from all sources.
A doctor’s certificate clearly stating the nature of the
injury and probable period of incapacitation must accompany each
application. The
Trustees of the Fund reserve the right to make any necessary
enquiry concerning an application. Completed application forms
should be returned to the County Office or the Area Benevolent
Officer (below).
3.
Every application is promptly considered by the Trustees,
in strict confidence, and grants are made where necessary, to
assist applicants during periods of incapacitation.
