We've signed up to the Armed Forces Covenant, making a commitment to supporting the armed forces community.

Working together to support the armed forces community

The aim of the covenant is to encourage businesses, communities and individuals to work together with the military to offer support to service personnel and their families as well as reservists and veterans. The covenant highlights the moral obligation owed to the Armed Forces and by signing the covenant, Cambs Compressors recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business.
