Your experiences help shape our work. In recent months, AFF has submitted evidence to consultations on Carer's Allowance and Education Other Than at School (EOTAS), ensuring the needs of Army families are represented at policy level.

We continue to speak up on your behalf, helping decision-makers understand the realities of Army family life and the impact policy changes can have on serving personnel and their families.

📢 Autumn Army&You is OUT NOW and we’ve got some fabulous giveaways for you as well as fascinating features. 📢

🛫 We focus on the impact military life has on our children, especially when they have to say goodbye to almost everything they know and start again on an overseas posting.

And we hear from a spouse about how going married unaccompanied was the way for her and her husband to build a settled home life for their children.

This edition gives you the opportunity to view floorplans and comment on new military homes that will be built in Wiltshire and we talk to Defence Families Champion Trish Jakeman about the creation of the Defence Housing Service.

🎄 There are five pairs of tickets to be won for the Festive Good Food Show at the NEC next month and one pair to The Tank Story at the Royal Geographical Society, featuring Al Murray, James Holland and experts from The Tank Museum, plus more giveaways.

For many young people, starting university is a major milestone filled with excitement and opportunity.

But if you’re in an Army family the transition often presents unique challenges. Years of mobility, changing schools and moving away from the military community can make the shift into higher education feel particularly daunting.

Find out more on the Army&You website about the role of Military Education Committees in helping understand and support military connected students.
