Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust - Family Focus Programme

Details

The Family Focus programme offers grants of between £50,000 and £100,000 to fund projects that explore and pilot solutions for family members - collectively and as individuals - of wounded, injured and sick serving personnel or Veterans.

Your project will need to meet one or more of the following outcomes:

  • Family members of those who are wounded, injured or sick feel better informed and more able to access relevant information, advice and guidance, applicable to their situation.
  • Family members of those who are wounded, injured or sick feel less lonely/isolated, more resilient and better equipped to deal with their circumstances.
  • Family members of those who are wounded, injured and sick have developed their skills for work, or have greater confidence to pursue volunteering or employment when it’s right for them.

The focus for 2025/26 is supporting projects that test new ideas, refine successful pilots, or expand services developed in the past five years, provided they are not part of an organisation's core work.
