Armed Forces Community Covenant
Armed Forces Community Covenant is a promise from the nation that those who serve or have served in the armed forces, and their families, are treated fairly.
Due to the mobility of service personnel and their families, they can often be disadvantaged in the provision of commercial products and services compared to other citizens, we call this commercial disadvantage. Addressing the commercial disadvantage experienced is a priority for the government and for the Ministry of Defence.
The Armed Forces Covenant team is working closely with organisations that provide commercial services to ensure the armed forces community have fair access to commercial products and services.
