Armed Forces Covenant Information Event

Published: 15/06/2015

Continuing the commitment it pledged to the Armed Forces Community Covenant in July 2013, Flintshire County Council is to host an Armed Forces Covenant Information Event on Friday 10 July at 2pm at Clwyd Theatr Cymru. The Covenant is a published voluntary pledge designed to allow businesses and charitable organisations to express their support to the Armed Forces, and commit to ways in which they can provide that support. The Council is keen to encourage local businesses and organisations to sign the Covenant and join the hundreds across the UK that have already done so. At the Information Event, Armed Forces personnel will explain how the covenant works along with the benefits and value of the support local organisations can provide. More information can be found at www.flintshire.gov.uk/covenant If you are a local business or charitable organisation please register your attendance by Friday 26 June at www.surveymonkey.com/s/AFCCRegistration or email covenant@flintshire.gov.uk for more information. Councillor Andy Dunbobbin, Armed Forces Champion said: “I am very proud to Champion the Armed Forces in Flintshire. I would like to encourage organisations, whether large or small, to come along on the 10 July and learn more about the Covenant and discover what they can do to support serving personnel, veterans and their families.”
