AD HOC EVIDENCE REQUESTS AND PRESENTATIONS We have assisted the following with Ad Hoc evidence: The Centre for Social Justice - Military Families and Transition
The Centre for Social Justice was sponsored by FiMT to carry out research on the potential barriers families face to a smooth transition to civilian life and future employment. We provided evidence and worked hard to persuade CSJ to reduce the emphasis on Army-specific research and outcomes. The final report was better balanced but provided little that was not already known about by the MoD and RAF.
The Welsh Assembly Government Armed Forces Expert Group
The RAF FF is a member of this Group and we attend regular meetings chaired at ministerial level. We provided input to several Papers during 2016, notably to further development of Welsh Government policy on support to the military.
Armed Forces Covenant Requests
We provided case studies and evidence for the government’s Annual Report. We also contributed to the 3 Families Federation’s Observations on the 2016 Report.
We provided advice, guidance and evidence to numerous Covenant Partnerships; gave advice on bids for funding and sat on a number of Covenant RDA Boards throughout the year. Graduations and Presentations
We attended Graduation Ceremonies at RAF Halton and RAF Honington throughout the year. We attended all of the IOT Fresher’s Evenings at RAF Cranwell, and made direct contact with several hundred new Officer Cadets. We presented to the Airmen’s Command School ‘Family Evening’ every 2 weeks: In 2016, we estimate we presented to over 1000 staff and students. We continue to present at all Community Support Courses at RAF Cranwell and have reached over 80 Community Support nominated personnel. The Director of the RAF FF presents to the Future Commanders Study Period courses at the Defence Academy, Shrivenham and we input to all Senior Executive Partner courses too.
