By listening to the experiences of veterans and engaging with the public, private and voluntary organisations that represent them, I can make recommendations and observations that aim to help improve the support available to our veterans. Previous reports published by my office can be found here.

At last night's meeting of the Cross Party Working Group on Veterans and Armed Forces Families, we heard valuable insights into new research on Service children with Additional Support Needs, as well as an encouraging update on the Thrive Together programme.

The Convener, Maurice Golden MSP, and the Chair, Maurice Corry, offered heartfelt thanks to the outgoing group secretary Jim Wilson, and presented him with tokens of esteem in recognition of his many years of service. I join them both in expressing my appreciation and wishing Jim every success in his future endeavours.
