About us
BFBS is a military charity and broadcaster that informs, entertains, connects and champions the UK Armed Forces. We bring entertainment, news, sport and information services to the military, their families and veterans worldwide. We spread happiness and keep people in touch, building morale among the military overseas – offering them a valuable connection to life back home, and a way to share experiences and build communities. We are also the home of military content, championing the military by keeping their activities in the public eye on our Forces digital channels and on our national TV channel. And our commercial services, which provide income for our charity, span training, digital and creative services and pioneering technology solutions that enable media and communication in the hardest to reach places. BFBS is a modern, vibrant and forward-thinking organisation that attracts talented people to join us and help us develop. We strive to create a diverse and collaborative working environment where everyone can contribute, learn and be themselves. We have a number of networks run by our community of colleagues, including Wellbeing, and Diversity and Inclusion.
