Hi John, if you're interested in joining the Army Foundation College (AFC) Harrogate you can create an application through the Army Jobs website and you will be assigned a support manager who will help guide you through the process.

It's always best to start your fitness now, especially for a Paratrooper role as the fitness standards are higher for Paratroopers
