As an independent charity, we provide support and guidance on matters affecting the daily lives of Naval service families, acting as an advocate when appropriate to resolve complex issues. As subject matter experts we continue to contribute to academic research and implementation of The Armed Forces Covenant providing evidence and the Naval families’ perspective to shape change and influence policy.
How We Work for You
One of the ways in which we capture evidence about how you are finding life as part of a serving family is by carrying out anonymous surveys. We also promote surveys and studies that other agencies and academic research teams are leading on, if they are relevant to serving Royal Navy and Royal Marines and their families.

Armed Forces Reservists Families Study
The purpose of this research is to identify the welfare and support requirements of Reservists’ families. The team at Oxford Brookes University would like to better understand these requirements by asking about your views, opinions, and experiences. The findings will allow them to compare needs against the current provision, to identify gaps, and to make recommendations about supporting Reservists families’ needs, as well as identifying areas for further research. This is not just about welfare support to families during deployment, but also day to day welfare and support services.
