Armed forces support
Grants for local projects
Armed Forces Covenant Trust
The Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust run a programme that makes grants of up to 拢20,000 for local projects that support the armed forces community and a programme to bring armed forces and civilian communities together through the Armistice and Armed Forces Communities programme.
They also have a programme that allows organisations to work together to provide better support for veterans that are experiencing serious stress, along with their carers and families.
For the first 3 years, the Covenant Fund was based within the Ministry of Defence, and in April 2018, following a decision that it should become independent, it moved to the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust.
The fund is a promise by the nation ensuring that those who serve or have served in the armed forces and their families, are treated fairly.
Funding themes
The Armed Forces Covenant Fund has 4 broad funding themes:
- removing barriers to family life
- extra support after service for those that need help
- measures to integrate military and civilian communities and allow the armed forces community to participate as citizens
- non-core healthcare services for veterans
