Shaping Forces is returning next month, and we are pleased to announce the organisations sponsoring the event.
Returning as headline sponsor is Citrus Facilities Management, who also sponsored our first Shaping Forces event in 2025. This year the event is also sponsored by City of Portsmouth College and Portico Shipping.
Citrus Facilities Management is a family-run company, specialising in commercial facilities management services. We have been proudly making a difference for clients in and around Southern England and London for over 16 years.
City of Portsouth College believes that every student should be able to achieve their aspirations, whatever their background or abilities, offering a uniquely broad range of choices across their four campuses, from the highest quality academic teaching to the latest vocational and technical training.
Located within Portsmouth International Port, Portico Shipping handles sea freight from ship to shore and beyond. Their two deep water quays can accommodate sub-Panamax vessels, and direct motorway access from the facility which means they are
perfectly placed for imports and exports to and from the south of the UK to all over the world.
Darren Coventry, Assistant Principal of Apprenticeships & BD at City of Portsmouth College said “City of Portsmouth College is proud to support Shaping Forces 2026, recognising the invaluable contribution of the Armed Forces Community across our region. The event provides an important opportunity to strengthen partnerships, improve understanding, and promote inclusive education, skills, and employment pathways that help make Portsmouth a supportive place to live and work.”
Shaping Forces will be taking place on 10th June in the Victory Suite at Fratton Park.The event is a unique opportunity to discover how your organisation can thrive by employing and working alongside the Armed Forces Community.
