Armed Forces Covenant

We adopted the Armed Forces Covenant in 2012. It is a “promise by the nation that those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces, and their families, are treated fairly.”

The Council is developing and implementing its policies on matters of concern to the Armed Forces and their families will have due regard to the Armed Forces Covenant.

The Council is also a member of the Staffordshire Armed Forces Partnership which has developed an Action Plan.
