Certes IT Service Solutions Announces Forces Employment Charity as Charity Partner 2025
At Certes IT Service Solutions, we are proud to announce our official Charity of the Year for 2025: Forces Employment Charity. This exciting partnership reflects our long-standing commitment to supporting military veterans and those transitioning from the armed forces into civilian employment.
With our extensive experience working with ex-service personnel, secured environments, and the Ministry of Defence, the decision to support Forces Employment Charity was a natural one. The charity’s mission to provide life-long, life-changing support to veterans, regardless of circumstance, rank, or length of service, aligns perfectly with our values and the work we do every day.
Who Are The Forces Employment Charity?
Established in 1885, the Forces Employment Charity offers one-to-one support designed to help veterans and their families succeed throughout their working lives. Help is available to all veterans of the UK Armed Forces, including reservists. We also support partners (including separated, divorced or bereaved) of serving personnel, veterans and reservists.
The charity can help with:
- career choices
- researching the job market
- job matching
- training
- education opportunities
- CV writing
- interview techniques
- expert industry knowledge and updates
- events and employment fairs
This support is delivered by our expert employment advisors, many of whom have also served or are military spouses.
Climbing Peaks for a Cause
To kickstart our fundraising efforts, a dedicated team of ten Certes employees will take on the gruelling Three Yorkshire Peaks Challenge in late September. The challenge covers 24 miles and involves scaling the iconic peaks of Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough, all within a demanding 12-hour window.
Our team has already begun training, with plenty of early morning hikes and weekend endurance walks in preparation. While the physical challenge is significant, our employees are united by a shared passion to make a meaningful contribution to this worthy cause.
All funds raised through the challenge will go directly to Forces Employment Charity to support their ongoing work with veterans and military families across the UK. You can make a donation here: DONATE
A Year of Impact
This is just the beginning of our charity partnership. Throughout the year, we’ll be organising a range of fundraising events, awareness campaigns, and volunteer opportunities to support Forces Employment Charity’s vital mission. Whether it’s through physical challenges, community engagement, or direct support, the Certes team is committed to making a lasting difference.
We’ll be sharing updates, training stories, and event highlights over the coming months, so be sure to follow our journey and support the cause where you can.
Together, we can help transform the futures of those who served.
