Here to Help

Midland Heart sign the Armed Forces Covenant

Through employer engagement we aim to demonstrate to employers the benefit to their organisations of recruiting from those who have served in the Armed Forces, or who are currently serving as Reservists in the Royal Navy, Royal Marines, Army or Royal Air Force.

Businesses are also shown other ways in which they can support our Armed Forces and how they can get this message across to their staff, members of the Armed Forces Community and the public at large.
