Supporting Children across North Yorkshire and beyond

Advocacy • Training • Events • Community Support

 

Awareness &

Advocacy

We make sure Service children are seen, heard, and understood. By raising awareness in schools and communities, we help others recognise the unique challenges of military life — from deployments to frequent moves — and ensure every child feels valued, supported, and included.

Our annual Remembrance events help Service children feel proud of their identity.

 

 

Support & Inclusion Activities

 From creative workshops and community events to one‑to‑one check‑ins, we provide safe, positive spaces where Service children can share experiences, make friends, and celebrate who they are. Our activities help children build confidence, feel connected, and know they’re not alone. 

From art workshops to drop-ins, we create safe spaces for children to connect.

 

 

 

Training & School Partnerships

 We work closely with schools to strengthen their understanding of Service life. Through CPD, resources, and regular communication, we help teachers and staff support Service children with confidence — especially during transitions, deployment periods, and times of change.

 

We equip schools with practical CPD and resources to support Service pupils confidently.

 

 

Our Impact

Every year, our work reaches thousands of Service children, their families, and the school communities that support them. These numbers reflect the strength of our partnerships and the real difference this role makes across North Yorkshire.

Through events, workshops, school visits, and direct support, we’ve engaged with more than 7,890 individuals between 2022–2025, helping Service children feel seen, supported, and celebrated.

Our programme connects with over 230 schools, ensuring that staff understand the unique challenges of military life and can provide welcoming, informed support to every Service child.

From Armed Forces Day for Children  to the Festival of Remembrance, Month of the Military Child, and the Service Children Awards, our flagship events bring communities together to celebrate identity, resilience, and pride.

We provide ongoing CPD for educators, run termly Service Children’s Network meetings, train Service Children Advocates, and offer individual support for children and families during deployment, transition, or times of change

 

Building a Network of Service Children's Champions

 

We’re working with councils and education teams across England to help develop local Champion roles, share best practice, and build a connected national community supporting Service children.

Whether you’re exploring the role or ready to launch your own Support Strategy — we can help.
