Orthotics - Change in Medical Standard For Entry (Aug 2019)
Some (hopefully) good news:
JSP 950 Leaflet 6-7-7 Musculo Skeletal Pre-Entry, Annex K (V1.6 Aug 19)
Now states:

Candidates with minor conditions that allow the usage of normal footwear (with orthotics if necessary) and are asymptomatic during activity comparable with military training for 3 months are FIT.
a) Candidates who use custom-made footwear are normally UNFIT
b) Those who require an orthotic but can use issued boots are normally FIT
