Families of Injured Service Personnel (FISP)
Welcome to the Support group for families of injured service personnel (FISP) web page.
The SSAFA Forces help, support group for the families of injured service personnel is a group set up by a group of Families members whose relatives have been injured in service.
The support group is a tri-service group that meets regularly and provides an opportunity for families to meet and share experiences, information advice and mutual support. The group is open to parents, Grandparents, siblings. Step-parents, partners. Or indeed anyone who is part of the family unit and feels they would benefit from the group.
We are a dynamic and evolving group and we welcome everyone's ideas and views.
