We are the RAF's leading welfare charity providing practical, financial and - in some cases - emotional support to all members of the RAF family, from childhood through to old age. We help with issues from childcare and relationship difficulties to injury and disability, and from financial hardship and debt to illness and bereavement.
Louise Copeland - RAF Driver"Returning from a tour, my van was involved in an accident which left me in a coma with serious brain injuries. Not only have the RAF Benevolent Fund bought me a flat to live in - they helped with my rehabilitation too. I'm getting my life back on track with their help."
