What is the Armed Forces Covenant?
The Armed Forces Covenant is a promise from the nation to those who serve or who have served, and their families, which says we will do all we can to ensure they are treated fairly and not disadvantaged in their day-to-day lives. The Armed Forces Covenant relies on the people, communities, and businesses of the UK to actively support it in order to make a difference.
The Covenant brings together the government, businesses, local authorities, charities and the public in order to support those who serve.
As a business based in a part of the country where military life is so prevalent and with CTCRM on our doorstep we felt that it was only appropriate to sign the covenant and support our community further.
We are the only Funeral Director in Exmouth or Budleigh to have signed the Armed Forces Covenant.
