"I served in the Army for 7 years before I joined our Armed Forces Team and wanted to give something back to the military community. The team works along side a number of the military charities and welfare teams and its very rewarding to help and advise injured service personnel and their families. There is a genuine passion and believe within our team that injured service personnel deserve the very best medical care and rehabilitation as well as receiving support and compensation that reflects the sacrifice made by our Armed Forces."
