Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust launches Hidden Voices programme for 2024/25

 

The Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust (the Trust) has launched a further Covenant Fund programme under its exciting three-year Funding Framework.

The Hidden Voices programme is now open for applications for grants of up £20,000 for projects that will provide accessible mental health and wellbeing services for under-represented serving Armed Forces personnel, Reservists, Veteran and families.

What is the Hidden Voices programme all about?

The Trust ran a public consultation in 2023, which identified that one of the key areas to focus on was ‘reducing isolation and loneliness for Armed Forces communities.’ This programme will enable and deliver accessible mental health and wellbeing support, as well as to identify known and unknown gaps in service provision. The consultation findings are available to read on The Trust website.

The Hidden Voices programme will support projects which achieve all the following outcomes:

• Build collaborative partnerships between Armed Forces organisations and specialist non- Armed Forces organisations.
• Identity and address known and unknown gaps in service provision.
• Provide accessible, preventative, and defined interventions.
• Increase knowledge and understanding with mainstream voluntary sector of the unique needs of the Armed Forces community.

Who can apply?

NHS England guidance for Service parents - registering a child with an NHS GP and use of the NHS app

Registering a child with an NHS GP and use of the NHS APP

Registration

There are safeguarding aspects to registering children without a parent, but it is not a reason for refusal.

Ideally, an adult with parental responsibility should normally be registered at the practice with the child where the ID of the adult can be matched to the child’s birth certificate details.

However, one of the exemptions to this is where both parents serve in the armed forces and are registered with an armed forces GP.

Further information is available in the Primary Medical Services Policy and Guidance Manual Part B Chapter 4.12 – Registering Children.

In all cases (adult and children), a GP practice may only refuse to register individuals where it has reasonable grounds for doing so. Reasonable grounds may include, in the case of an application for permanent registration, that the patient does not live, or does not intend to live in, the contractor’s practice area or the outer boundary area. A GP surgery can also refuse to register a new patient because their practice is not taking on any new patients.

The ICB can also assign a new patient to a practice whose list is open.
