Our Armed Forces Community connects members of staff from our Armed Forces community to provide mutual support and advice on all matters related to service, either in the military or in the NHS.
We aim to provide expertise and mentorship to anyone who wishes to support our Armed Forces community.
We also provide support to community members who may need an extra shoulder when and where they need it.
Our membership is inclusive across all employees, patients, relatives, students, volunteers and other on site workers who may have an interest. We actively encourage members of the Trust to become service champions.

In Sussex we are proud of our military heritage and committed to equality. We will ensure that military veterans and their families face no disadvantage when accessing our services.
If you have served in the military, please let us know, so that we can better serve you.
We are a Veteran Aware Trust. This means we are leading the way in improving veterans’ care within the NHS, as part of the Veterans Covenant Healthcare Alliance (VCHA).
Fighting with Pride supports the health and wellbeing of LGBT+Veterans, service personnel and their families – in particular those most impacted by the ban on LGBT+ personnel serving in the Armed Forces prior to January 2000.
