Being from an Armed Forces family can bring lots of opportunities to make friends, see the world and learn amazing new skills but we know that some aspects of service life can be really difficult for young people.

Through consultation with over 500 Armed Forces young people in Scotland we found that over 4/5’s felt their wellbeing was affected by being from a service family and by particular service related stressors such as deployments and repeated moves.

Through funding from the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust we’ll be launching a wellbeing support service for our young people, and by our young people. Check back on this page in late Summer to find out more about our projects, and how you or an Armed Forces young person that you know could get involved.
