THE Territorial Army will be holding a recruitment drive every week day at its offices in York.

It is appealing to prospective new recruits by showing employment opportunities with the Territorial Army (TA) at its Micklegate office.

Reservists and local communities are backing the nationwide recruitment campaign by putting on over 100 events up and down the country throughout Autumn to demonstrate to the public what the TA is all about. The events are part of a wider recruitment campaign which aims to encourage new recruits into the TA.

Members of the public will be able to speak to the soldiers and see the latest kit and equipment used by the British Army including armoured vehicles and a range of weapons.

Brigadier Andrew Jackson, the Director of Army Recruiting and Training said: “These events are intended to show people from York that, no matter what your skills or background, the Army has something to offer you and serving with the TA provides opportunities to learn much more beyond military skills.”
