In the charity's own words

Children of our British Armed Forces face daily unique challenges especially when a parent is serving away from the family home, times when communications can be limited and sporadic. Additionally moving home and school frequently due to service needs brings uncertainty and change. We provide accessible support resources, initiatives and programmes for those supporting military children.
