Solent Medical Skills has always been proud to support the armed forces community. We’re excited to share that we’ve officially signed the Armed Forces Covenant—strengthening our commitment to serving military personnel, veterans, and those transitioning out of service.

The Armed Forces Covenant is the UK’s promise to those who protect our nation with honour, courage, and dedication. By signing it, we’re reaffirming our support for the unique challenges faced by military professionals.

We deeply respect the bravery of people working in conflict zones and understand the physical and emotional toll their roles can take. When military learners join our classrooms, we aim to tailor our training to meet their needs.

We also recognise the value of pre-hospital medicine as a career path for service leavers. Veterans bring a wealth of transferable skills—discipline, leadership, and the ability to perform under pressure. Many already have medical experience, making them well-suited to build on those foundations with our training programmes. We’re proud to offer a welcoming and inclusive learning environment for all veterans.

Honouring military service brings people together and highlights the importance of their contributions. Our commitment is reflected in the pledges we’ve made as part of the Armed Forces Covenant, including:

  • Promoting the armed forces
  • Engaging through outreach and communication
  • Offering discounts to serving UK military and veterans
  • Delivering top-tier medical training
