Battling On is a Community Interest Company founded in 2012 originally to assist ex-Armed Forces members transitioning to civilian life. We now support the entire Armed Forces community through various projects. Our current scheme, FRESH START, aids partners and spouses with tailored support. Upcoming initiatives will focus on Forces families, the LGBT+ Armed Forces community, mental health, employability skills, and community integration, in collaboration with local businesses and educational institutions. Battling On aims to empower all Armed Forces community members and foster inclusivity, helping individuals build fulfilling lives post-service. We encourage everyone to join our supportive community.
