Success with the RAF

Families in the military often face testing times, with long periods of separation and worry. At Time for Families we believe it is crucial to help strengthen these families, so we are starting to run 'Building Stronger Families' courses with military families.

We are thrilled to have run our first course with couples from the RAF Regiment at RAF Honington. 5 couples attended the Building Stronger Families course that was organised with the help of RAF Honington's wonderful chaplaincy team.

The course ran over 3 weeks, and we had excellent feedback from the couples about their experiences. During 2012 we plan to run more courses at RAF Honington and with other military bases across the UK.

We are very thankful to all the course participants for being so engaged with the programme, and to the staff for helping us get it off the ground.

Details of future courses coming soon...

Our impact

We are very proud of our work here at Time for Families. Every week we hear great stories of improved relationships and brighter futures from participants on our courses.

We also have some excellent evaluation of our work, showing the impact of both 'Building Stronger Families' in adult prisons, and 'Building Bridges' in juvenile prisons.
