Volunteering (opportunities available to BFB entitled personnel only)

Within BFB community, there are a number of voluntary opportunities (available to BFB entitled personnel only) which could enhance your CV such as;

​

•  SSAFA In-Service Committee (available to BFB entitled personnel only)

The SSAFA In-Service Committee Brunei provides funding and support to all serving Garrison members, their dependants, other associated Garrison organisations and Garrison-related community projects. 

​

It is made up of volunteers from across the Garrison community and meets once a month to vote on funding applications and to generate new fundraising ideas. Key roles are: chairperson, secretary, treasurer, publicity officer and merchandising officer. 

​

We also host events, such as the SSAFA Big Brew and Camo Day, as well as supporting other activities throughout the Garrison. The Loan Service at Berakas has a SSAFA representative and it contributes towards SSAFA Brunei funds.

​

If you haven’t time to sign up to the committee, but are willing to help out at events, we also have the Friends of SSAFA Brunei group. 

​

As SSAFA is a recognised UK-registered military charity, volunteering can enhance your CV.
