2025 Army Families Federation questionnaire on Service pay
The Army Families Federation (AFF), Naval Families Federation (NFF) and RAF Families Federation (RAFFF) are jointly running a questionnaire to hear from Regular Service Personnel and their families about satisfaction with pay and personal financial circumstances over the past 12 months.
The responses will help to:
Better understand the financial challenges faced by service families.
Identify any trends or issues specific to each of the single services.
Provide robust, evidence-based feedback to the MOD, the Armed Forces Pay Review Body, and other key stakeholders.
To take part in this questionnaire, which is open to serving personnel, spouses and partners, please click the link below.

The questionnaire should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete and every response helps strengthen the evidence that family federations can present on behalf of families.
