My latest report - Veterans and Finance - recommends earlier education and better access to support.

It was a privilege to close out the Armed Forces Covenant Conference. Two days of learning, challenge and connection. Inspiring to see how many organisations and individuals are dedicated to improving the lives of our Armed Forces and Veteran community.

Great start to the second day of the UK Armed Forces Covenant conference. A meeting with all three Veterans Commissioners and Minister Al Carns DSO OBE MC MP, followed by his inspiring key note address. Also a chance to pop into the Poppyscotland Bud and say hello.

Delighted to welcome the UK Armed Forces Covenant Conference to Glasgow today. A packed room and a busy and interesting programme with more to come tomorrow.
Was also great to get advanced sight of the updated Armed Forces Covenant Toolkit ahead of the conference - a valuable guide for councils and partners on upholding the Covenant and working together to support the Armed Forces community so that no member faces disadvantage due to their service.
