Description

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant               

We recognise the contribution that all Service personnel, reservists, veterans, the cadet movement, and military families can make to an organisation, our community and to the country. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant by:

  • Promoting the Armed Forces
  • Employment support to members of Armed Forces families
  • Physical and Mental Health Support
  • Housing Support
  • Education Support
  • endeavouring to offer a degree of flexibility in granting leave for Service spouses and partners before, during and after a partner’s deployment.
  • aiming to actively participate in Armed Forces Day.

No member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantages arising from their service in the provision of public and commercial services.
