<p>The below figures are given as of 1 January 2024 - due to the method used to capture
personnel data, these are the most current available figures.</p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><em>HMS
Nelson</em></p></td><td><p><em>1,040</em></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><em>Brittania Royal
Naval College</em></p></td><td><p><em>590</em></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><em>Defence
Equipment & Support Gosport</em></p></td><td><p><em>0</em></p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><tbody><tr><td><p>
</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>These figures include all UK Regular Forces
including Gurkhas, Military Provost Guard Service (MPGS), Locally Engaged Personnel
(LEP), Volunteer Reserve, Serving Regular Reserve, Sponsored Reserve, and FTRS of
unknown origin. University Officer Cadets are excluded. Unless otherwise stated, these
include both trained and untrained personnel.</p><p>The figures are based on Service
personnel’s stationed location and not their location of residence – where personnel’s
work isn’t necessarily where they live.</p><p>Figures containing reserve personnel
are estimates because the stationed location data for Reserves has not been fully
verified through JPA.</p><p>Figures have been rounded to the nearest 10 to prevent
inadvertent disclosure, however numbers ending in “5” have been rounded to the nearest
20 to prevent systemic bias. It should also be noted that reserve numbers are estimates
as these are not fully verified through JPA.</p>
