The final round of the Armistice and Armed Forces Communities programme closes on 1 October 2018. Hundreds of awards have already been made to schools, community organisations and places of worship across the UK.
The Armed Forces Covenant Fund Trust is running a programme to fund the costs of up to 10 silhouettes for schools, community groups, places of worship and local charities.
Applying is easy. Your organisation will need to fill in a short form; and will need to commit to holding a community event in November 2018. This event does not need to be complex. It could involve local veterans from your community; young people or perhaps a local military base. The event will need to provide an opportunity to reflect on the Armistice; but also to think about the Armed Forces today. If awarded; the evocative silhouettes will belong to your organisation; and you can use them in future years.
