Veterans: Government Assistance
- Question
-
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what assessment his Department has made of the effectiveness of the Afghanistan Veterans' Fund at achieving its objectives.
- Answer
-
In September 2021, the Government announced that Armed Forces charities would receive £5 million in additional funding to support veterans, including those who may be struggling following events in Afghanistan.
Whilst a full qualitative and quantitative analysis of this funding will be undertaken by the Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust (AFCFT), who have administered this on behalf of the Office for Veterans’ Affairs, at the appropriate time, the AFCFT has already seen positive impacts during their mid-programmes reviews.
