University of Winchester

Description

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant

As a signatory to the Armed Forces Covenant, the University pledges to ensure military personnel, including reservists and veterans, are treated fairly. We lead a number of initiatives to support military personnel and their families and have been awarded the Armed Forces Covenant Employer Recognition Silver Award.

We are proud to be at the forefront of work recognising and supporting Service children, working with the Ministry of Defence and a range of other partners to support the educational progression of children from military families, sharing our research and resources across the sector, including leading the Service Children’s Progression (SCiP) Alliance.

The University is also a member of the Universities in Support of Wounded, Injured and Sick Service Personnel (UNSWIS) network, offering work experience, taster sessions and advisory visits.
