AFF Briefings

01   Families' Concerns

AFF publishes Families’ Concerns, a statistical round up of all the issues that are brought to AFF through our Co-ordinators on the ground, our Specialists and the work we do in social media. We utilise quantitative analysis to support qualitative reporting and helps us monitor trends. The aim of this report is to inform the chain of command, and local and central Government of the key challenges facing Army families and current and emerging causes of disadvantage. We also share this information with charities that we collaborate and campaign with on specific issues.
