A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Community Children’s Nurse to join
the SSAFA Community Health Team in Akrotiri.
SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, has been providing lifelong support to our
Forces and their families since 1885. Last year our teams of volunteers and
employees helped more than 85,000 people in need, from Second World War
veterans to young men and women who have served in more recent conflicts,
and their families. SSAFA understands that behind every uniform is a
person. We are here for that person – any time they need us, in any way
they need us, for as long as they need us.
