In the 2024 program up to 445 places will be available for young people, up from 260 in 2024. Of those, around 250 places will be in the Army, 120 in the Air Force, and up to 75 will be in the Navy. Gap Year places are being made available in the Navy for the first time in 2024. The popularity of the program is proven, with around 4,000 young people applying for places in the 2024 intake. Unfortunately, the 2024 intake has now closed. Check out the website below in coming months for information on the 2017 intake.
