DIO is launching Regional Experience Committees (RECs) across the UK, bringing together Service family volunteers who are passionate about improving housing services and ensuring family voices are heard.
This is an exciting opportunity to become a Service Family Customer Representative for your region to help influence positive change in military housing. By joining, you will play an important role in highlighting local issues, identifying opportunities for improvement and sharing what matters most to Service families.
As a member of your REC, you will work alongside other representatives and key figures within DIO to provide constructive feedback, discuss common themes and challenges, and represent the lived experiences of families in your area.
This is a volunteer role which will be held for 12 months. You do not need any formal qualifications or previous experience. We are simply looking for people who:
- Currently live in SFA and expect to remain within the region for the next 12 months to ensure continuity of representation
- Care about improving housing services
- Are willing to share experiences and ideas in the region
- Feel comfortable taking part in group discussions
- Can commit to attending quarterly meeting
As well as helping to make a real difference, you will have the opportunity to ensure Service family perspectives are heard, gain a deeper understanding of how Defence housing operates and develop your own skills.
If you would like to be considered, we would love to hear from you. Applications are now open until Friday 18th September 2026.
To apply, please complete the application form here. All applications will be responded to within 21 days of the closing date.

Your experiences matter. Help us make Service housing better together.
