The Officers’ Association Scotland exists to provide lifelong support, resources, employment training, and financial welfare assistance to officers and their families, whether they are service leavers, veterans, or reservists, throughout their transition to civilian life and beyond. While our core charitable purpose is to support the officer community, we are proud to offer our employment training, networking opportunities, and employer engagement activity to all ranks.
We provide tailored career guidance, employment support, mentoring, and access to a strong network of employers who recognise the value of military experience. By working closely with businesses across Scotland, we champion the message that recruiting from the armed forces community is good for business. Alongside our employment programmes, we deliver vital welfare support through individual grants and bursaries, as well as organisational grants that strengthen the wider armed forces charity sector.

These projects allow our members create and participate in live theatre and filmed productions supported by our experienced staff team. Our members enjoy social interaction and being able to showcase and perform their work to the local community throughout the year.
We are proud of our partnership with UHI Moray which allows us to deliver SQA performing and creative arts courses at NPA, HNC and HND levels which prepare our students for creative careers in their specific art forms or alternative employment within arts management, teaching and social professions and more.
