Tarka X SafeHarbour Signs the Armed Forces Covenant: A Commitment to Our Community
Updated: Jul 11
Barnstaple, North Devon — Tarka X SafeHarbour, a North Devon-based provider of property security and safeguarding services, is proud to announce that it has officially signed the Armed Forces Covenant. This reinforces our commitment to supporting those who serve or have served in the UK Armed Forces, along with their families.
The Armed Forces Covenant is a national pledge. It ensures that members of the Armed Forces community are treated fairly and are not disadvantaged when accessing services. This covenant is built on the principles that those who serve should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens. It also acknowledges that special consideration may be appropriate for those who have given the most.
By signing the Covenant, Tarka X SafeHarbour joins thousands of organisations across the UK. We are making a public commitment to support the Armed Forces community through practical actions and inclusive business practices.
A Natural Fit for a People-First Security Business
Tarka X SafeHarbour specialises in safeguarding visits, welfare checks, keyholding, and security oversight for unoccupied and vulnerable properties across North Devon. Our ethos is centred on early intervention, risk reduction, and providing reassurance to families, property owners, and professionals.
Signing the Armed Forces Covenant aligns closely with these values.
“Our work is about protecting people, not just property. Signing the Armed Forces Covenant is a natural step for us. It reflects our respect for those who have served and our commitment to ensuring they are treated fairly, supported, and never overlooked within our community."
- Kevin Collier, Director of Tarka X SafeHarbour

Deliver services without disadvantage to Armed Forces personnel, veterans, and their families.
Recognise and value the experience, discipline, and skills developed through military service.

Support the wider Armed Forces community through awareness and local engagement.
The Armed Forces Covenant is open to businesses of all sizes. It encourages tailored commitments that reflect each organisation’s role and capacity.
