At the beginning of July BFBS is hosting an interactive Facebook Live to discuss the mental health of forces families and issues which may have been amplified during the current pandemic.
The Facebook Live will include a small panel of forces family members who have experienced mental health challenges, together with mental health champions and experts. The discussion will include sharing personal experiences, advice, and ideas of how to implement policy on the ground – as well as responding to questions from participants.
BFBS is also creating an information and story hub on forces.net to include case studies and signposting to organisations that can offer help and advice.
If anyone from the military family community is willing to share their story for this hub , including their challenges and coping methods, please email mikaela.harley@bfbs.com by Friday 12 June.
