UHDB re-signs Armed Forces Covenant
Today, we celebrated the Armed Forces Covenant re-signing as part of Armed Forces week to pay tribute to those who have served for this country.
The re-signing took place at the Royal Derby Hospital to honour those who proudly protect our nation, with honour, courage, and commitment, ranging from serving troops to service families, veterans and cadets.
Kathy McLean, Chair at UHDB, attended the event to re-sign the covenant along with Gavin Boyle, Chief Executive at UHDB, and key members of the Ministry of Defence to show their support. Kathy said: “I am exceptionally proud of our growing bond between UHDB and the Armed Forces.”
The Armed Forces Covenant is an agreement on behalf of the nation to treat those who are in, or have served, the armed forces fairly.
Kathy added: “We hope that this signing reaffirms the Trust’s commitment to those in the Armed Forces who deserve both the recognition and respect from all surrounding communities who they serve.”
