Summary

Description
English: A Reservist from each of the the three main reserve service. From left, a Royal Naval Reserve, Army Reserve and Royal Air Force Reserve.

There are around 35,000 Volunteer Reservists in the UK. Coming from all backgrounds, regions and jobs, these are ordinary men and women who give up their time to train and serve alongside the Regular Forces.

Volunteer Reservists are called out to supplement the Regular Forces whenever Operational demands require it. If they’re mobilised they’ll carry out the same roles to the same high standards as their Regular counterparts. They also receive the same world-class training and develop the same skills.

Reservists make up around 14% of the nation's total defence capacity which in turn makes them an essential part of our defence strategy. They are called upon as individuals for their specific skills or as ready-formed units to serve alongside the Regular Forces whenever required.
