Rachael Stokes, Managing Director of Beloved Homecare has today signed the official Armed Forces Covenant on behalf of the service.

Rachael said “Recognising the value our armed forces and their families is something we both support and encourage throughout our service. Many of our clients are veterans of all branches of the armed forces and it is only right that we recognise the value a member of staff with military service, or their family members, can offer.”

The Armed Forces Covenant requires two core principles:

No member of the armed forces community should face disadvantage in the face of public and commercial organisations in comparison to other citizens;
Special consideration may be appropriate for some members of the armed forces community.

Ove the coming weeks Beloved Homecare senior leadership team will be working with the Ministry of Defence Employment Response Team to explore the benefits members of the armed forces community can bring to clients, the care service and our community as a whole.
