Armed Forces Covenant

The Council is a proud member of the Cheshire Armed Forces Covenant Partnership Committee.

The Armed Forces Covenant is a promise by the nation ensuring that those who serve or who have served in the Armed Forces and their families, are treated fairly.

Through this work, the Council and its partners encourage support for the Armed Forces community working and living in the borough, and support activities which help integrate the Armed Forces community into local life by providing support around issues such as:

Education
Housing
Employment
Finance and benefits information

West Cheshire Armed Forces Covenant

The Council also holds the MOD's Employer Recognition Scheme Silver Award which recognises organisations that pledge, demonstrate or advocate support to defence and the armed forces community, and align their values with the Armed Forces Covenant.
