We are extremely proud to have been awarded Armed Forces Covenant Gold Award for our work in supporting veterans and serving members of the forces across NHS Humber Health Partnership.

Having previously been awarded Gold by the Ministry of Defence, it has been announced that Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust has retained the accolade. Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust was also awarded Gold last year.

Armed Forces Champion, Jan Fillinger, said: “We are very proud of the support we provide to veterans, serving members of the armed forces, and their families in our area, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

“We know how important it is to understand your additional needs when providing care in our hospitals and in the community.

“We are also committed to helping those of you who have left the forces to adapt to civilian life, by providing career opportunities.

“There are many life skills that are transferrable from the military into the NHS, and we are happy to support you into this next phase of your career.”
