Armed Forces Day in the United Kingdom, observed annually on the last Saturday in June, is a day dedicated to celebrating and honouring the contributions and sacrifices of the men and women who serve in the British Armed Forces. Launched in 2009, this special day recognises the commitment and bravery of active duty personnel, reservists, veterans, and their families. The celebration features a wide array of events across the country, including parades, military displays, community activities, and fly-pasts, allowing the public to show their support and appreciation. Armed Forces Day not only pays tribute to those currently serving but also acknowledges the historical significance and ongoing importance of the military in safeguarding the nation’s security and values.

Military Hearing Loss Claims
Our Industrial Disease department have experience claiming compensation for people who have suffered hearing loss due to excessive noise. Claiming compensation for military hearing loss involves seeking redress for hearing damage sustained during service due to exposure to loud noises such as gunfire, explosions, and machinery. Service members who experience hearing loss as a result of their duties can file a claim through the Ministry of Defence. Successful claims can result in financial compensation, recognising the impact of hearing loss on a veteran’s quality of life and ensuring they receive the support and acknowledgment they deserve for their service-related injuries.
