I spent the day at the RAND Europe Stakeholder Workshop on Future Views of Mental Health. 

Funders, service providers and stakeholders in one room, thinking through what mental health need and provision could look like over the next 20 years. Really valuable conversations - grateful to have been part of it.

I attended a fascinating event this week.

We heard about Forces in Mind Trust's new 'FiMT Challenges' initiative - a fresh approach to accelerating positive change for the Armed Forces Community.

It was also a pleasure to meet Matt Bazeley OBE, new CEO of Forces Employment Charity, and hear his vision for supporting veterans as they transition into and progress through civilian employment.

Some really insightful and encouraging conversations about collaboration and innovation across the sector.

Yesterday, the Veterans Commissioners for Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales met with Sir Chris Bryant MP, Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Wes Streeting MP, Secretary of State for Defence, Calvin Bailey MBE MP, Minister for Veterans and People, and Sarah Owen MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, to discuss the Northern Ireland Troubles Bill.
It was a welcome opportunity to raise the concerns of the veteran community about the legislation and to have an open and candid discussion about the way forward.
