Armed Forces Day 2025 is an opportunity for us all to reflect on the exceptional commitment, courage, and professionalism shown by the men and women of the British Armed Forces. At Ison Harrison, we are proud to stand with those who serve; not only today, but every day.
We recognise the diverse challenges faced by service personnel and veterans, both during and after military life. Whether on deployment, in training, or transitioning to civilian life, those who serve make daily sacrifices that often go unseen. Armed Forces Day is a national moment to bring their stories forward and to reaffirm the respect and gratitude they are owed.
Understanding Military Life
Behind every uniform is a person, a son or daughter, a partner, a parent, navigating the demands of military life with resilience and pride. From early mornings on the parade ground to complex operations abroad, the service experience shapes lives in ways few outside the Forces can fully comprehend.
Many will face physical and psychological strain. Some will experience injury, illness, or hardship that continues long after their time in service. Others will need support in accessing their entitlements, finding justice, or rebuilding a life interrupted by trauma.
At Ison Harrison, we believe this support must be grounded in compassion, dignity, and an understanding of the unique nature of military life. Our commitment to the Armed Forces community is not about marketing; it is about standing shoulder to shoulder with those who have stood for all of us.
A Lasting Commitment
We work alongside service personnel, veterans and their families in many ways, but always with the same guiding principle: respect first, and action that follows through.
We continue to learn from those we work with, from infantry soldiers and Royal Navy divers to RAF technicians and service families affected by injury, harassment or loss. Their courage is matched only by their humility. Listening to their experiences informs everything we do.
Whether it is raising awareness of Non-Freezing Cold Injuries (NFCI), supporting those navigating the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS), or engaging with veteran support networks, our role is to stand as a dependable, informed, and respectful ally.
Thank You for Your Service
We do not take your service for granted. We know that behind every medal is a moment of pressure, danger or determination that most of us will never face. For those who carry physical or emotional scars, our message is simple: you are not forgotten, and you do not have to face the aftermath alone.
We remain proud to support those who serve, and we offer our sincere thanks to every member of the UK Armed Forces community; past, present and future.
