About RAF Families Federation
The RAF Families Federation exists to make life better for Service personnel and their families, at home and overseas. Married, seperated, in a long-term relationship or single, with children or without, we are here to support, advise and guide.
We provide reliable information on the topics that matter most to you, support you through to the resolution of problems resulting from Service and make long-term positive changes happen for the Armed Forces Community.
