Our Key Partners
WRAC ASSOCIATION
The WRAC Association provides community and comradeship to over 3,000 female Army veterans - whether they are from WRAC, the Auxiliary Territorial Service or the modern-day British Army. In addition to providing a network of support, the ATS & WRAC Benevolent Fund distributes grants to former servicewomen who are in need of financial assistance.
The Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust is a charity and an MOD sponsored Non Departmental Public Body that manages the grant programmes funded by the Covenant Fund. They also run wider funding programmes that support the Armed Forces community. The Trust makes grants that have an impact on the lives of Armed Forces communities, including serving personnel, Armed Forces families, veterans, and their families. The Armed Forces Covenant is a promise by the nation ensuring that those who serve or who have served in the Armed Forces, and their families, are treated fairly. All the grants that we award support the values of the Covenant.
We need your input…
