The British Armed Forces Federation (BAFF) is an independent, representative professional staff association for HM Forces personnel.

BAFF is all ranks and tri-Service, and is open to anyone serving in the Royal Navy/Royal Marines, British Army or Royal Air Force, including the Reserves. Veterans can also join the federation.

BAFF is non-political, legally constituted and completely independent of the Ministry of Defence. While BAFF claims no special recognition, the service authorities and Government ministers have confirmed that serving individuals are allowed to join and to be represented by such an organisation.

BAFF is a professional staff association, not an Armed Forces trade union.
