Last year, the Female Veterans' Transformation Programme launched the Supporting Female Veterans Toolkit, containing practical, evidence-based advice and information to help charities, statutory services and employers better support women veterans.
From insights on needs and identity, to practical checklists for providing support in a range of areas, this is a hugely valuable resource to improve experienced and outcomes for an often overlooked group.

An inspiring evening at the Scottish Forces in Business Awards, where the huge contribution of the Reservist and military community in Scotland was recognised.
Fantastic to see so many employers celebrating their military colleagues and to witness the range of talent and commitment from Rising Stars to Lifetime Achievement Awards.
And great to meet with Julie Ann Simson of @forcesemploymentcharity.
Congratulations to all nominees and winners!

I was delighted to visit the team at Glasgow's Helping Heroes on Tuesday to hear an update on their work and insights into the Armed Forces and veteran community that they support. It was particularly encouraging to hear about new initiatives in response to emerging needs, alongside their continued commitment to supporting individuals facing housing, health and employment challenges.
