"All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king" - JRR Tolkein

"We see this as an excellent and intelligent initiative central to the wider debate of how to look after our rehabilitating service personnel as they begin their transition to civilian life."

"The experience and guidance I have received has enabled me to choose an alternative career in something I love doing, my only regret is that the excellent "Soldier On!" initiative was not available when I originally left the forces."

"I have known Nicholas Harrison for three years and we first met in his capacity as an executive search consultant when I was seeking employment after leaving the Army. I found him to be extremely conscientious and capable and his advice was measured and helpful. He is a generous individual and I judge him to be magnanimous and trustworthy. He understands the trials and tribulations of the executive search market and is supportive of those who are seeking their way forward for life part two'."

Encountering these incredible individuals can be equally life changing. Business owes it to these heroes to engage with them, find them useful employment and help them to continue to have useful and rewarding lives. Their positivity and strength of character boosts wider team morale and makes many rethink what corporate social responsibility is really all about. "Soldier On" is delivering an extremely valuable service and deserves our full support

'I contacted Nick Harrison to help me find a new job. He instantly suggested a role to me that I had not thought of but having helped me re-write my CV I realised that I had all the necessary skills and experience for this role. Nick was very helpful and attentive though out the interview and negotiation process and even called to find out how I was getting on in the job after my first week.

I always felt that both myself and the client were treated with equal importance. I found Nick was clearly an experienced recruiter and would recommend Nick's services to anybody else having found me the ideal role which I am finding both enjoyable and challenging.'
