Previous Meetings

The Armed Forces Veterans’ Hub was launched in Royal Berkshire on Saturday, 7 November 2020, following receipt of the Gold Award in the Ministry of Defence’s Employer Recognition Scheme in 2020. This affirms the Fire Authority and Service’s ongoing commitment to the Armed Forces community.

The Armed Forces Veterans’ Hub launch event was hosted virtually by the Fire Authority, coordinated jointly between the Service and MP James Sunderland. It coincided with Remembrance Sunday, and has been designed to offer a place for veterans to come together, listen to high profile speakers and meet organisations who can provide them with advice or support them and meet each other.
