FamCAS 25: Have you shared your views on Service family life? Time’s running out!
The Families Continuous Attitude Survey (FamCAS) 2025 closes in 1 week! Don’t miss your opportunity to tell us what you think about Service family life.
Each year, Defence invites a random sample of Service partners to complete the Families Continuous Attitude Survey (FamCAS). This survey is your chance to tell us about your experiences and views in relation to various aspects of Service family life.
You can see if you are in this year’s sample, and can access the survey, by using the online tool. The survey closes on Monday 7 April 2025 at 23:59.
Why complete the survey?
Your feedback will help us to understand what Service life is like for your family, which will help us to make informed decisions on what changes to prioritise and develop policies to address your family’s challenges and needs. Whether it’s with childcare and children’s education, housing, deployment, or employment.
Who can complete the survey, and how?
To find out if you can take part in FamCAS 2025, please use the online eligibility tool. You will be asked to enter a token/access code, which is your partner’s Service number. This is needed for security reasons only. Please be assured that all survey responses are anonymous.
If eligible, the tool will direct you to the survey. We recommend using Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.
If you have any questions about this year's FamCAS, please email: Analysis-Surveys-Enquiries@mod.gov.uk.
Information and support
Check out our new Families Hub, which signposts to support, guidance and organisations to help you navigate Service family life.
