Army Speak Out Campaign


Everyone has the right to be treated fairly and with respect. If you feel that you are not being dealt with fairly, are being bullied or harassed or if you notice unfair treatment of others speak to your Chain of Command or your Diversity and Inclusion Adviser.

If you do not have access to your Chain of Command or would prefer external support to help you respond to or deal with any issues, speak to the Army’s Speak Out Team (0830-1700 Mon-Fri) on 0306 7704656 (Civ) or 96770 4656 (mil) or email Army-SpeakOut@mod.gov.uk.

Your call will be dealt with in confidence and no details will be passed back to your Chain of Command without your authorisation.

The Speak Out staff can also provide advice and support if you are experiencing domestic abuse / domestic violence or if you would like to report someone else that you believe is being committing or experiencing domestic abuse / domestic violence.​

Children And Family Court Advisory And Support Service (CAFCASS)


What is CAFCASS?

CAFCASS represents children in family court cases in England. We put children’s needs, wishes and feelings first, making sure that children’s voices are heart at the heart of the family court setting, and that decisions are made in their best interests. Operating within the law set by Parliament (Criminal Justice and Court Services Act 2000) and under the rules and directions of the family courts, we are independent of the courts, social services, education and health authorities and all similar agencies.

Our duty is to safeguard and promote the welfare of children going through the family justice system. Our experienced Family Court Advisers may be asked by the court to work with families and then advice the court on what we consider to the best interests of the children involved in three main areas:

- Divorces and separation, sometimes called ‘private law’, where parents or carers can’t agree on arrangements for their children

- Care proceedings, sometimes called ‘public law’, where social services have serious concerns about the safety or welfare of a child

- Adoption, which can be either public or private law
