The Armed Forces Covenant is a collective commitment that unites Government, businesses, local authorities, charitable organisations, and the public.

By pledging allegiance to the Covenant, entities demonstrate their unwavering support for the Armed Forces community and their welfare.

The Armed Forces Covenant is a vital commitment for our business, as it underscores our dedication to supporting those who serve our country. By honouring this Covenant, we recognise the immense sacrifices made by military Personnel and their families.

It reinforces our pledge to provide equal opportunities for Veterans, Reservists, and military spouses within our workforce, ensuring they are treated with the fairness and respect they deserve.

This commitment not only enriches our team with diverse skills and experiences but also strengthens our community ties, fostering a culture of loyalty, resilience, and mutual support.

We also offer work experience opportunities for Armed Forces Personnel transitioning from the Army.

After serving 22 years with the Royal Artillery, I wasn’t fully ready to hang up my boots. I wanted to keep doing my part whilst still being able to enjoy the unique banter and camaraderie that you can only get in the Forces, so joined the Army Reserves. It is also a good way to top up your pay and keep in touch with friends you have made over the years.
