The 8th Armed Forces & Veterans Resettlement Expo took place on Thursday October 27 at the Jobserve Community Stadium, home of Colchester United Football Club.
It was another well attended forces networking event with an array of exhibitors on display from NEBOSH (our main sponsors) to Siemens to Terraces and Troops who conducted the interview below with BFBS Colchester, who were present on the day interviewing the stands on show.

Football clubs across the UK support armed forces members and veterans locally, with activities and events. Veterans across the UK contribute to the world of football through sponsorship, coaching, officiating, and playing.
We celebrate the bond between football and the forces and aim to house all this information in one place. On our site you will soon be able to search any football team and instantly access the name of the Armed Forces Champion at that club, along with their timetable of activities.
We will cover any relevant fundraising events or news on both our website and social media platforms.
We have also developed a range of merchandise to create an income for football and armed forces organisations that sign up to our affiliate programme.
