JB Property Law is proud to support the Pride in Veterans Standard, recognising that the Armed Forces community is wonderfully diverse and that every veteran deserves to feel respected, valued and able to access support without fear of discrimination.

​

The Pride in Veterans Standard encourages organisations to create inclusive environments where LGBTQ+ veterans and serving personnel know they will be welcomed, understood and treated with dignity.

​

We believe that everyone who has served our country deserves the same respect, regardless of their background, identity or who they love.

​

Supporting the Standard is about more than displaying a logo. It's about raising awareness, encouraging conversations and helping to ensure that every veteran feels seen, heard and supported.

​

By sharing information, promoting the work of the Pride in Veterans campaign and championing inclusion within the wider Armed Forces community, we hope to play a small part in creating a future where every veteran knows they belong.

JB Property Law is proud to be both an Armed Forces Covenant Signatory and a Veteran Aware organisation.

​

These commitments reflect our promise to recognise the contribution made by those who serve or have served, and to ensure they are treated fairly, respectfully and without disadvantage.

Joanne is proud to volunteer with SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, supporting members of the military community who need advice, guidance and practical assistance.

​

Volunteering provides another opportunity to give back and reinforces our belief that supporting the Armed Forces should never begin and end with legal services.

Joanne is also a GROW Mentor, supporting aspiring legal professionals and helping individuals understand that there is no single route into a successful legal career.

​

As someone who began her own career as an office junior before progressing to Consultant Property Lawyer and business owner, Joanne is passionate about opening doors for others and encouraging people from all backgrounds to pursue careers within the legal profession.

Joanne's husband Ashley proudly served as a Kingsman in the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment for a decade. 

​

Supporting the Regimental family remains incredibly important to us.

​

JB Property Law proudly supports the Duke of Lancaster's Regimental Charity and will continue making charitable donations to help the charity provide assistance to serving soldiers, veterans and their families.

​

Whenever possible, Joanne and Ashley also attend military remembrance services, regimental events and commemorations.

​

Not as representatives of a business. But as a veteran and his wife paying their respects to friends, colleagues and those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

One of our proudest initiatives is Beyond the CV.

​

Created by JB Property Law, the campaign challenges employers to look beyond employment gaps, frequent relocations and unconventional career paths particularly those experienced by military spouses.

​

Military spouses develop remarkable resilience, adaptability, leadership and problem-solving skills, yet these qualities are too often overlooked during recruitment.

​

Beyond the CV encourages employers to recognise potential rather than assumptions, creating opportunities for talented individuals whose careers have been shaped by service life rather than limited by it.

​

For us, this isn't simply a campaign. ​It's a commitment to changing perceptions and opening doors.
