Armed Forces Covenant: Force for Change programme awards

 

The Force for Change programme awards grants of up to £10,000 for community projects that reduce isolation and promote integration, supporting post-Covid recovery in local Armed Forces communities affected by isolation. Projects will need to make a real difference to Armed Forces communities locally.
This can include funding for pilot projects; or to try new ways of offering local support. It can also include projects that build on earlier work that you have done.
There are two deadlines during 2022/23:

For a decision in late October 2022, you will need to submit your application by 8 August 2022.
For a decision in late February 2023 you will need to submit your application by 14 November 2022.

RBLI: Supporting spouses of serving armed forces personnel

This is a free service RBLI offers to spouses of serving armed forces personnel. We have delivered these courses alongside our Lifeworks programme for some time, but are re-starting them.

We know it can be difficult to get to courses so we deliver the course remotely via MS Teams.

If you want to pop the link to the meeting on the TV and have a few people in the room then that’s fine too.

There are no forms to fill in to apply for it, just some basic details we will take on the phone or by email. We are the RBLI so will not be passing on your information or filling your inbox with junk or spam email.
