This Armed Forces Week, we recognise that service brings unique experiences, opportunities and challenges.

Whether you're serving today, planning for life beyond the Forces, or have already transitioned to civilian life, it's worth checking that you're receiving all the pension benefits you've earned through your service.

Did you know around 15,000 Armed Forces pensions remain unclaimed. Could one be yours – or belong to someone you know? Find out how to check with our guide:

Bracknell Forest Armed Forces Day is this Saturday! Join us from 12 noon in Bond Square at The Lexicon to celebrate our incredible armed forces community.

Representatives from The Royal Military Academy Sandhurst will also be in Union Square (opposite Boots) with two military service vehicles on display – a GS Land Rover and an SV MAN 6T. Come and explore the vehicles and snap a photo with the family!

Vehicle Cab Access
Children are welcome to step into the cab one at a time for a quick look and photo under parental discretion. The display team will provide a safety brief, supervise and assist with entry and exit.

Due to the height and steep steps on some vehicles, children under 5 may not be able to safely access the cab. Parents and guardians should use their discretion, with guidance from the display team where needed.
