Every Officer and other Rank who joins
the Black Watch and subscribes to the "One Days Pay Scheme" is automatically a member of The Association.  All Officers and other Ranks who have served in any Battalion of the Regiment are eligible to become members of The Association and of Branches.

Assistance is given on the strength of a report prepared by a SSAFA Forces Help Caseworker.  Any grant given is authorised by the Welfare Committee.  Grants are paid to SSAFA Forces Help who administer its expenditure.

There is also a Holiday Scheme for widows of Black Watch servicemen and Education Grants can be made to soldiers who have retired or about to do so; this type of grant can in some cases be made to their children. Funds to enable The Association to carry out its charitable work are obtained through our investments and Donations, preferably through the Grant Aid Scheme.
