We’re honoured to share some exciting news!

Last night in Cardiff, we were proudly presented with the Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS) Gold Award by the Ministry of Defence – a prestigious recognition of the outstanding support we give to the Armed Forces community.

It was a glittering evening, complete with a drinks reception, beautiful music from Cerys Rees (regimental harpist of The Royal Welsh), and a fantastic performance from the Regimental Band of The Royal Welsh.

The ERS Gold Award is the highest accolade, celebrating employers who go above and beyond to support serving personnel, veterans, reservists, and their families.

To achieve Gold, organisations must:
✔️ Provide at least 10 days’ additional paid leave for Reservists
✔️ Implement dedicated HR policies for veterans and Cadet Force Adult Volunteers
✔️ Actively champion Defence within their networks
✔️ Show sustained commitment far beyond the basics

At Gatewen, we’re especially proud to have three incredible trainers and assessors who are ex-Forces – bringing with them unmatched skills, discipline, and experience. We’re truly privileged to be a Forces-friendly employer and to celebrate the immense value that ex-service personnel bring to the workplace.
