In 2019, Glendale Managed Services Ltd, including its divisions Glendale Grounds Management Ltd and Glendale Countryside Ltd, proudly signed the Armed Forces Covenant. This declaration underscores the recognition and respect the company holds for the immense contributions of Serving Personnel, Reservists, Veterans, and military families to both the business and the country.
The Armed Forces Covenant represents a profound promise between the United Kingdom, its government, and those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces, along with their families. It acknowledges the sacrifices made by our servicemen and women in defence of the realm, sometimes facing extreme dangers and personal losses. This covenant is a testament to the moral duty of society towards these brave individuals and their families, ensuring they receive fair treatment, respect, and support.

At Glendale Managed Services Ltd, our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant is more than a policy; it’s a reflection of our core values and a personal mission that we are passionate about.
We recognise that veterans and serving personnel are repositories of unique skills and experiences. Their discipline, leadership, and resilience are qualities that can immensely benefit any organisation. By integrating these individuals into our workforce, we not only enrich our team but also gain new perspectives that are crucial for our growth and innovation.
Our commitment goes beyond offering employment opportunities. It’s about fostering an environment that respects and supports the transition of military personnel and their families into civilian life. We understand the challenges they face and strive to provide a welcoming and understanding community that values their service and sacrifice.
We believe that supporting the Armed Forces Covenant is not just the right thing to do; it also positively impacts our brand. This commitment showcases our dedication to social responsibility and has helped us build stronger connections with our customers and the wider community, who value businesses that make a real difference.
At Glendale, we feel a profound sense of moral obligation towards those who have served our country. They have dedicated their lives to our safety and freedom, and it is only fitting that we show our gratitude by supporting them in tangible ways.
