Today is Armed Forces Day, 24th June. Armed Forces Day is a day to show support for serving men and women, their families, veterans and cadets. Events are being held up and down the county and you can find out more here. 

The Armed Forces Covenant 

Whilst today is an opportunity for the public to show their support, the Government, businesses and communities support members and ex-members of the forces through the Armed Forces Covenant. The Armed Forces Covenant is a pledge to acknowledge and understand that those who serve or who have served in the armed forces should be treated with fairness and respect. 

The Armed Forces Compensation Scheme 

The Armed Forces Compensation Scheme also exists to compensate members and ex-members who have sustained an injury or illness due to service. It is a non-fault based scheme and compensates for a who range of injures are included in the scheme including both physical injuries, psychological injuries and injuries that are specific to service, such as blast injuries. 

You can contact one of our specialist team for advice on making an AFCS claim for compensation

I highly recommend Winston Solicitors especially Heidi Stewart when it comes to getting a compensation claim. I was nervous at first but Heidi was very reassuring supportive as well as professional. She kept me up to date and explained everything,so I knew what was going on from start to finish. Best compensation no win no fee solicitors,as their commission is exceptionally reasonable as well. I trust them 100% to get the job done right and they always put the clients best interests first!

Even though I thought that my will was fairly straightforward, I learnt a few things through the process. The solicitor gave me some thoughtful alternatives which I appreciated. All in all a very satisfactory process and outcome.
