October marked World Mental Health Day and we pay tribute to members of the RAF community who took part in Royal Air Force Association challenges throughout 2025 to push themselves further and improve their own mental and physical health. Whether you are pushing yourself to try something new or just want a challenge to set your mind to, the RAF Association have so many exciting opportunities to get involved with. Together we’ve proven that connection, purpose and giving back can be powerful tools for improving your wellbeing. Here are a few amazing stories from RAFA challenges that have taken place this year.
This September marks the 85th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, a pivotal moment in our history when a generation of brave men and women stood united against overwhelming odds. As the skies over Britain filled with the roar of aircraft, the courage and sacrifice of “The Few” became a lasing symbol of resilience and unity. In this edition we honour their legacy with stories from service men and women and invite you to write a message on our Battle of Britain tribute wall, ensuring their legacy lives on for generations to come.
Today is Victory over Japan Day (VJ Day), the 80th anniversary of Japan announcing its surrender to the Allied forces in 1945. This momentous occasion marked the end of the Second World War and we pause to remember the sacrifices of all those who served in the Royal Air Force. From the skies over Europe and the world, RAF personnel played a vital role in securing our peace and freedom, often at great personal cost. This VJ Day we invite you to join us in commemorating their service, with stories from those who served, ensuring their legacy lives on for generations to come.
The RAF Associations’ RAFA Rides is a cycling event like no other. Participation isn't just about the miles covered, it's about the powerful stories behind each pedal, the hearts behind the wheels. Cyclists joined us to honour loved ones, inspire others, and raise awareness of the associations' work for those who have, and still do, serve in the RAF. Scroll down to watch and listen to some of our amazing cyclists and the reasons why they chose to join us and support RAFA Rides 2025.
We at the RAF Association believe everyone has something valuable to give back to the RAF community, whether it's a donation, offering skills, or simply some time to lend a compassionate ear. Befriending and supporting those in need isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about showing up. You don’t know how much a small act can make a difference to those in need of a friend. Scroll down to read about our amazing volunteers and how you can make a difference.
