More than £400,000 awarded to 42 Forces projects in the latest round of the Force for Change programme

The Armed Forces Covenant Trust (the Trust) is delighted to have awarded grants totaling more than £400,000 to 42 outstanding projects in the latest round of the popular Force for Change programme, which supports community projects that reduce isolation and promote integration in local Armed Forces communities.

Projects across the UK were supported in this latest round, ranging from gardening and woodworking projects, to sporting projects and community wellbeing projects offering opportunities for members of the Armed Forces community to come together and connect with others.

Addressing the cost of living

A common theme addressed through this funding was the continuing cost of living crisis. These latest funded projects will help address some of the challenges the current economic climate presents for Armed Forces communities.

Sonia Howe, Director of Policy and Communications at the Trust, said: "It has been another brilliant year of the Force for Change programme, in which we've funded 100 projects supporting local Armed Forces communities across the UK. In this final round we've been pleased to see a wide range of projects taking place, and a common theme amongst many has been cost of living challenges. Moving forward, when the programme launches again this spring, we'll be increasing the award amount to £15,000 to reflect these challenges."
