Our vision:
We have a vision of a world where no one suffers from the painful genetic skin blistering condition, EB.
DEBRA focuses its work in two areas:

Our Montrose Salvation Army shop is situated in the heart of the town centre. We stock menswear, ladies fashions, children’s clothes, linen, books and bric-a-brac. There are bargains to be found for all the family.
The coastal town of Montrose sits between Dundee and Aberdeen and boasts an attractive town centre and a wide sandy beach. Montrose is a great little town to visit, with a pleasant old centre and an interesting museum and art gallery. The town sits on the edge of a virtually landlocked two-mile-square lagoon of mud known as the Basin, which is a nature reserve and a haven for birds who love its mud.
Our Salvation Army shop Montrose is always delighted to accept your donations – all we ask is that they’re good quality and undamaged. Our shop teams are trained to make as much money as possible from your generosity to fund The Salvation Army’s work. We can organise house collections from this shop, just call us to enquire.
Volunteering with us is a challenging and rewarding experience. We have lots of opportunities and are always on the look-out for passionate people to lend a hand. If you’re interested in volunteering with us, we’d love to hear from you.

To promote and encourage among young men and women a practical interest in aviation and the Royal Air Force (RAF).
To provide training which will be useful in both the services and civilian life.
To foster a spirit of adventure and to develop the qualities of leadership and good citizenship
We are not a recruiting organisation for the RAF but if you’re thinking about a Service career, cadet membership will put you ahead of the competition. Many cadets go on to great success in the RAF (and the other Services). Around 40% of officers and 50% of all aircrew (including pilots, navigators and engineers) in the RAF now are ex-cadets. Research shows that they do better in basic training and stay in the Service longer than their colleagues. Likewise, if you chose a civilian career our research proves you can go on the great things…employers just love the skills and experience that air cadets offer.
Let’s face it – where else would you be given the opportunity to fly solo in a glider or powered aircraft when you’re 17? Whatever you do with your life, at the end of your time as a cadet you’ll be self-motivated, confident and ready for anything.
