Impact Report

Impact Report summary

In 2020, we were proud to be by the side of veterans, serving personnel and their families during the Covid-19 crisis. We were there with the help they needed just as we always have been for the past century, quickly developing innovative support to meet the challenges of the day. Our rapid and effective response to the pandemic wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible support of our amazing donors and fundraisers, our hard-working staff and our Trustees who gave invaluable guidance.

This year's report reflects the very broad range of support that the Fund provides. In 2020 we reached out and supported more than 63,700 members of the RAF Family, spending £26M in doing so, including more than 4.8M on the currently serving and their families.
