Army Reserve: Training
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of of delivering Army Reserve basic training from a single site at Alexander Barracks, Pirbright on resilience.
Answered by Louise Sandher-Jones
The consolidation of Army Reserve basic training at Alexander Barracks, Pirbright, will not result in training being delivered exclusively from a single location. While the Army Training Regiment will relocate from Prince William of Gloucester Barracks, Grantham, to Pirbright. A network of regional training hubs will continue to operate across the country to support reservists.
The exact number and type of hubs will be determined by the ongoing Army Reserve Basic Training Review.
