PPL Joins Forces as Nominations Partner for the Armed Forces Community Awards

At the heart of every remarkable story in the Armed Forces community lies someone who saw potential, lifted another up, and helped transform ambition into impact. Today, it gives us immense pride to add a new chapter to that story.

We are delighted to announce that PPL is the Nominations Partner for this year’s Armed Forces Community Awards @ Soldiering On, the national celebration of service and community achievement that honours individuals, teams, families, and organisations across the entire Armed Forces community.

A partnership rooted in shared purpose

These Awards stand as a platform for both recognition and reflection, giving us all a  chance to pause and honour those whose tenacity, innovation, and selfless service continue to shape society in support our Armed Forces Community. Founded over a decade ago with that mission, the Awards have grown year on year to shine a light on voices that deserve to be heard and stories that deserve to be told.

Partnering with organisations who truly understand the value of connection, impact, and community makes all the difference. PPL brings that same commitment to excellence. As a trusted data and digital leader within the London Insurance Market, PPL champions precision, collaboration, and forward-thinking solutions.

A message

John Mason, CEO of PPL , shared his enthusiasm for the collaboration:

“PPL are delighted to be the nominations partner for this year’s inspirational Soldiering On Awards. The Awards shine a light on the incredible levels of determination, resilience and ambition of both individuals and teams in the Armed Forces community. We continue to be amazed and inspired by the stories the awards uncover each year and are proud to be associated with the wider societal contribution of the Military family.”

John Mason, CEO, PPL

Their support ensures that even more exceptional stories from across the Armed Forces community will be heard, recognised, and celebrated.

Why nominations matter

Nominations are more than filling in a form, they are a moment of recognition, of gratitude, and of visibility for someone who has embodied courage and commitment in remarkable ways. With Placing Platform Limited championing this pivotal stage of the Awards, we hope even more voices will be encouraged to step forward and be heard.

Whether it’s someone who has found a new purpose after service, a family whose sacrifices have inspired others, or a team whose innovative spirit has made a difference, every nominee enriches the fabric of this community.

Now is the time to nominate. If you know someone whose story deserves to be elevated, whether they are serving personnel, veterans, carers, families, or advocates, we want to hear from you.
