Women Veterans: Equally valued. Equally qualified. Equally served. Research has shown that female veterans face more barriers to employment than male veterans. Military women often step off their career pathway to accommodate changes in their personal circumstances. They also encounter challenges common among many working women including greater childcare and caring responsibilities. In 2019 only 8% of our clients were female compared to 92% male. Thanks to the introduction of the Military Women Programme, by 2021 this increased to 10%.
