Welcome to the British and Commonwealth Services Association of Sweden. We have a long history dating back to 1937 when we were first formed. We are a non-profit organisation with the aim of uniting residents in Sweden who are or have served in the military forces and emergency services of any country recognised as a member of the Commonwealth
Our vision is to bring together all individuals in Sweden who are currently serving or have served in H.M Royal Navy, Army, Air Force, Emergency Services (Police, Fire, and Ambulance service), any Auxiliary or Territorial Unit of those Forces, or have served in the Armed Forces or Emergency Services of any Commonwealth member country. Join us in fostering camaraderie and support among all who have dedicated themselves to these noble services.
The British and Commonwealth Services Association of Sweden is dedicated to providing support and assistance to British and Commonwealth veterans residing in Sweden. Through various programs and initiatives, we aim to enhance the wellbeing and integration of these servicemen and servicewomen in their new home here in Sweden.
195 sailors, soldiers and airmen from the Commonwealth of Nations, who served in World Wars One and Two are buried in 11 cemeteries across Sweden:
Forty six of these 195 are unknown. The unknown from World War One include 30 sailors, two Royal Marines, and one whose service or unit is unknown. The unknown from World War Two are 13 airmen.
