We are delighted to have received support from a number of businesses. We are extremely grateful to all our supporters, some examples of which are included below.
Eric Warren, Chair of BNY Mellon’s EMEA Veteran’s Network, said:
"We’re really conscious that for wounded, injured and sick veterans, leaving – often very suddenly – can be a shattering experience. The Poppy Factory is the specialist in getting these veterans back on their feet and helping them secure jobs they love.
BNY Mellon’s partnership with The Poppy Factory, part of our continued commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant, is our way of giving practical employment support across the UK to veterans who really need it."
