Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust - Supporting Serving Families Overseas Programme
Details
This programme offers grants of between £3,000 and £20,000 to support serving families stationed overseas. It aims to help overseas bases, or UK-based charities working with them, identify and address challenges impacting the wellbeing of partners, children and young people during overseas deployments.
The Trust is looking to support projects which offer new forms of targeted support for families of serving personnel posted and living overseas to help them thrive in their new communities and build networks of support to improve wellbeing. Your project will need to meet one or more of the following outcomes:
- Provide new forms of personalised and targeted support in location for partners, young people, and children and their wellbeing whilst posted overseas.
- Increase serving families’ knowledge of existing services and recreational provision.
- Reduce isolation and the impact of loneliness in country for partners, young people and children.
