Little Troopers is a registered charity supporting all military children who have parent(s) serving in our British Armed Forces, regular or reserve.
These children often face unique challenges including frequent house and school moves, as well as regular periods of separation from their serving parent(s) for varying lengths of time due to exercises, training, operations and other service commitments.
As a charity, Little Troopers ensures our British Armed Forces children and their families have access to child-focused support, providing fundamental resources and initiatives.
Little Troopers at School project aims to educate schools; Primary and Secondary, about the unique needs, through circumstance, of military children and make available easily accessible resources to you.
We want to ensure all military children get fair and consistent support within their education setting wherever that may be, for all circumstances and however many times they move schools.
Little Troopers was founded to empower parents; to enable you, no matter where in the world you are based, to easily access specific resources and initiatives to help you support your little troopers at home.
Living military life can bring unique challenges; moving home, moving school, periods of separation and deployments. Here you can find lots of hands on advice, fantastic resources and ways to get through those challenges.
Louise founded Little Troopers in 2011. She’s been a soldier, she’s moved home countless times, lived abroad, lived married unaccompanied, experienced being on deployment herself and now being a military spouse. As a family they have survived seven operational tours and various exercises!

The tri-service Little Troopers Therapy Programme offers free one-to-one psychotherapy sessions in a programme and community therapy groups for older forces children who feel particularly impacted specifically by the challenges that military life can bring, such as having a parent deployed or moving home and school frequently.
