Families Programme

The Forces Employment Charity's Families Programme offers 1:1 employment advice, coaching and mentoring. All of its advisors are Service partners – they understand Service life and how to overcome the challenges it can bring.

Wraparound Childcare

If you have children aged between 4-11 years old, you may be able to receive funding through the MOD's Wraparound Childcare (WAC) scheme. Eligible families may claim funding for up to 20 hours per week of wraparound childcare (for each child) during term time. Check your eligibility and browse FAQs on the Army Families Federation (AFF) website.

Teacher training advisers

If you're studying for a Bachelor's Degree or already have one, apply for a free teacher training adviser through Get Into Teaching. They can provide 1:1 support by phone, text or email, and you can talk to them as little or as much as you need.
