Self-help guides are online interactive guides to work through anywhere, at your own pace at whatever time suits you.

They are designed to be an overview with tools tips and strategies to support you with a variety of subjects, from anger to sleep to goal setting and many more.

To get started, simply head to the ‘Self-Help’ section in the top navigation bar. From there you can browse available subjects and select the one you would like to work through.

Prefer to learn with others? We also offer group courses run via Microsoft Teams, where you can explore these subjects alongside others in the Armed Forces Community - just look out for the ‘Register your interest’ button. 

If you have any specific learning requirements, we’re always happy to help. Feel free to get in touch, and we’ll do our best to support you. 

All our self-help guides are freely available, and you can access them here.

Self-help guides are available online for you to explore at your own pace, whenever it suits you best. Feel free to revisit them as often as you like. There’s no limit, and no pressure. 

All our subjects are also available as group courses, hosted online via Microsoft Teams, allowing you to learn alongside others in the Armed Forces Community. If you're unfamiliar with Microsoft Teams, we can arrange a test call to help you get started. 

Each group usually includes up to 10 participants, supported by up to 3 experienced facilitators, creating a space that’s informal and friendly. Sessions are designed with flexibility in mind, to include regular breaks, you are welcome to sit wherever you are comfortable and move around when you feel you need to.
