Website launched to help armed forces

The Armed Forces Community Covenant has taken a step forward this week with the launch of a website.

The Island became the first place outside of the UK to sign up to the covenant - it's geared toward removing barriers so that people who have served in the armed forces can access services.

Home Affairs Minister Juan Watterson has been leading the campaign.

He’s branded the website a ‘one stop shop’ for current or ex-forces people to find what they need on the Island.
