Mortgage Advice Bureau Network Partner Scotland recognised for commitment to Armed Forces community

Posted: 22nd December 2017

Dominic Taddei	Mortgage Advice BureauMortgage Advice Bureau Network Partner Scotland has been recognised for its commitment to the Armed Forces, with a silver award presented by the Ministry of Defence (MoD) at a prestigious ceremony at Edinburgh Castle.

The award is given in recognition of employers who have provided exceptional support to the armed forces community, by going above their covenant pledges. As a forces-friendly company the award recognises their commitment to the value serving personnel; regulars and reservists and military families contribute to their country and bring to business.

Dominic Taddei of Mortgage Advice Bureau says: “It’s an honour to be presented with this award, just one year after joining the covenant. Supporting the armed forces has always been incredibly important to us and as a business, we have already seen the benefits. 2018 and beyond will see us bringing a growing number of veterans and their families to our team.”

Presenting the award to the team at Edinburgh Castle, Lieutenant General Richard Nugee, Chief of Defence People, said: “Congratulations to all this year’s Employer Recognition Scheme Silver Award winners who have turned their willingness to make a difference to our brave Armed Forces into effective programmes of support. Your commitment is highly valued and is at the heart of all that can be achieved in every part of the country through the Armed Forces Covenant.”
