Cllr Theresa Heron, the Council’s Armed Forces Community Covenant Champion, said “We’re encouraging local businesses and organisations to pledge their support to our armed forces community.

“Signing the Armed Forces Covenant gives a clear commitment to ensuring members of the community do not face discrimination and will help to build your reputation as a forces-friendly employer.”
