Families in Stress The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has established the new £10 million Covenant Fund to support the armed forces community through the Armed Forces Covenant. The Families in Stress programme funds projects that support families of serving personnel who are experiencing a significant stressful life event and would benefit from an intervention from a provider who can offer specialised, localised (or easily accessible) and immediate support. These life events could include: life-changing injury, bereavement, domestic abuse, relationship break-up, those subject to the civil or service justice system or mental health issues.
Who can apply?
The expression of interest must be from a local charity (or branch of a national charity) or Community Interest Company that provides specialist services. This organisation will be the accountable body for the grant.
What can you apply for?
Under the Families in Stress priority they will make awards of up to £300,000.
They can pay for most of the things you’ll need for your project whether it’s people’s time, buying or hiring equipment, or minor improvements to land or buildings.
Projects requesting over £100,000 or requiring more than £50,000 capital funding will have to be very good, high impact exemplar projects, in order to be successful.
