Armed Forces Compensation Scheme

The Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS) is a financial support program in the UK for military personnel who are injured, disabled, or have suffered illness due to their service. It provides compensation for both physical injuries and mental health issues, recognizing the sacrifices made by service members. The scheme assesses the severity of the condition and offers a structured payout, enabling affected individuals to receive financial assistance for rehabilitation, loss of earnings, and other related costs. The AFCS aims to ensure that service members are fairly compensated for their sacrifices and challenges faced during and after their service.
