Step into Health: the pledging process

- Sharing dedicated Step into Health contact details to be included on the Step into Health pledge map.
- Building a relationship and actively engaging with the Career Transition Partnership (CTP).
- Promoting the programme, sharing messaging via our website and social media and using Step into Health branding to promote consistent messages about the programme.
- Engaging with and supporting Armed Forces community members throughout the application process and during any pre-employment opportunities.
