We are delighted to mark this significant milestone and honour the remarkable achievements of our Armed Forces community.
Over the past 15 years, the Soldiering On Awards have evolved into a year-long celebration, weaving together stories of strength, resilience, and unity.
More than just a ceremony, it is a journey of storytelling and community building. Each story we highlight connects military leaders, government, businesses, charities, and the wider public in a shared admiration for the contributions of our Armed Forces. This connection is vital in ensuring that these achievements are recognised and celebrated across our society.
We continue to recognise the extraordinary – from veterans making great strides in business to unsung heroes driving change in their local communities, and the military spouses, children, and supporters whose contributions often go unnoticed.
So, who do you know that deserves national recognition? Who inspires you? Nominate them today at www.soldieringon.org
