Mini served 28 years in the Royal Navy as a Radar Operator, leaving the service in 2013 at the rank of Chief Petty Officer. After his military career, he spent 11½ years with Help for Heroes as a Case Manager, playing a key role in supporting Armed Forces Hubs across the South West of England.  

Director

I served in the Coldstream Guards for 21-years. Upon leaving the Army, I was medically discharged and faced adversity, like many other members of the Armed Forces. Thankfully, barbering gave me a platform to build my own business. I founded Armour To Barber, run an award winning Barbershop and teach all aspects of barbering across the UK. I provide the Veterans Regroup project with strategic input as a Director.

Simon has always been deeply passionate about his role within the Veterans Regroup project, having personally experienced the process of seeking help. He encourages anyone feeling trapped in that vicious cycle to reach out and get in touch.
