Proud to support & celebrate
As a major local employer, we were proud to sponsor Armed Forces Day in Northampton on Saturday 24th of June 2023.
Our partnerships
We work with a number of different organisations, including the Careers Transition Partnership (CTP) and the Poppy Factory, to support both leavers of the Armed forces as they transition from military into civilian life and veterans with health conditions on their journey into employment. Some of our inspiring colleagues share their stories below.
