Our military community has a spectacular silver lining

We were absolutely thrilled to be awarded the Ministry of Defence's Employer Recognition Scheme Silver Award. 

Our supportive HR policies to military Reservists, as well as the growth of our employee-led 'Cadent Military Community' (CMC) were held as exemplars, helping us to continue our journey towards being truly diverse and inclusive.

During a ceremony held at the magnificent National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire, our employees and CMC members Dave Mounfield, Lee Rowland and Joseph Harvey accepted this award on behalf of the company. 

Dave said: "We created our Cadent Military Community two years ago with this award in our sights. It shows that Cadent is delivering tangible support to the armed forces community, as well as a commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant and our Veteran, Reservist, Cadet and forces family community. 

"This is one of many fantastic work streams within the business to improve our diversity, equality and inclusion.  Since signing the Armed Forces Covenant in 2018 we have worked extremely hard across the orgnisation to create an enivironment of inclusivity for all.

"Our executive team and everyone working here has shown leadership and commitment to the forces community.

"I would like to thank all members of the Community for their input, insightfulness, humour, and dedication towards our shared objective.  We couldn't have achieved this without you!"
