Was a truly fantastic event. I have been privileged & honoured to be able to attend and host so many amazing Armed Forces Events over the past 4 years. A Huge thank you to Tony Blaney for a lot of these. This one was extremely special and I was so delighted to be able to share with so many of the great partners, clients and friends to this event. Being able to get different people & organisations to see how the Armed Forces Community helps shape ,support and inspire the youth of today. By introducing new organisation to the world of the positives and challenges that the Armed Forces Community has is something that drives me personally. If we can start to get businesses to understand the challenges and benefits of working within this amazing community, with truly amazing people then we can help those that serve, have served and their families. I will & I know One Financial Solutions will continue to raise the awareness, advocacy and support. You can only do this by having great partnerships and I and we are fortunate that we are building a great network of like minded organisations in trying to make a difference. #armedforcescommunity #makeadifference

On Wednesday we were honoured and privileged that One Financial Solutions were invited to a very, very special event hosted by Her Royal Highness, The Princess Royal. Patron, Marine Society & Sea Cadets and Admiral of the Sea Cadet Corps. Hosted at Buckingham Palace for a special evening dedicated to the Sea Cadets. We were extremely fortunate that our MD, Wayne Griffiths, Our Head or Operations Danielle Cook, Head of Propositions Richard Hamilton & Head of Strategic Partnership & Armed Forces Lead Mark French as well as many of our own guests were able to attend this incredible event. We would personally like to say the biggest thank you to the Sea Cadets, to Martin Coles & Daniel McAllister for organising such a magnificent event. Of course a very special thank you to HRH The Princess Royal, who spoke so passionately around what vital role the Sea Cadets has in society today. The event itself was fantastic and seeing so many of the fantastic youth of today who are part of the Sea Cadets and hearing around how much it influences, directs them and gives them confidence is a truly Inspirational. and the work across the length and breadth of the country. "Our work in with the Armed Forces Community is just really getting started and we are so proud of what we have accomplished in such a short time, It's nights like tonight though that really motivate us to want to do more, get more people involved" - Richard Hamilton "To see how much pride these young people have in what they do is something special. I could not have imagined how special our time this evening" Danielle Cook A big thank you to all our guests that came too! #armedforcescommunity #seacadets #ofs
