New Funding Programme to Prevent Veteran Suicide (UK)

The Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust has launched a new programme to prevent veteran suicide.

The Embedding Prevention of Veteran Suicide programme aims to drive systemic change and provide long-term support for veterans with poor mental health, their families, and caregivers.

Organisations can apply for:

  • a one-year grant of up to £50,000
  • a two-year grant of up to £100,000

The option to apply for enhanced funding is available in some cases.

Projects must meet one or more of the following outcomes.

  • to support staff who work with vulnerable beneficiaries
  • to address mental health wellbeing, help-seeking, and stigma within the Armed Forces community
  • to address the needs of under-represented groups

Applications are invited from UK registered charities and statutory organisations, particularly those seeking to collaborate with stakeholders and service providers.

The deadline for applications is 12pm on the 2nd October 2024.
