Remembrance Day 2022

This Friday 11th November is Remembrance Day, a day to commemorate the brave men and women in the Armed Forces who have lost their lives in the line of duty.

As a business we will be joining with others across the nation to observe a two-minute silence at 11:00am to pause and reflect on the service and sacrifices the Armed Forces make on our behalf.

One way we as a Chamber support veterans is by signing up to the Armed Force Covenant.

As a signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant, the Chamber pledges to offer guaranteed interviews to people leaving the armed forces and their partners providing they meet the minimum requirements for the job. Also we’re engaging actively with a specialist recruitment service that’s available to encourage people leaving the armed forces to move to Cumbria to take up jobs and live here. This is something businesses across the county could really benefit from.
