SVC Strategic Plan

This strategic plan sets out my mission and mandate, vision and values and offers an outline of the work I will be pursuing during my 3 year appointment as Scottish Veterans Commissioner. It sets a path and priorities as well as the next steps and approach my office and I will be taking. Some of this work may be more long term and continue beyond the end of my tenure and this would be a decision for my successor.

A valuable meeting with 51 Brigade’s SO2 Welfare at Redford Barracks yesterday, discussing the challenges faced by Service Leavers and their families, particularly around health, employment and housing.

A key takeaway was the importance of Service Leavers accessing the support, briefings and information available to them, and ensuring that the advice provided reflects the realities of settling in Scotland. Access to the right information at the right time can make a real difference to a successful transition.
