November was a busy month - from moving Remembrance events to updates from partners in areas such as housing and support for Service children and women veterans. I also launched my report on Support for the Bereaved Community. Read more in my round-up at the link in my bio - SVC - news and blogs 🔗

A productive and valuable meeting yesterday with @veteransscotland and the Forces In Mind Trust. We shared key insights, upcoming plans, concerns across the sector and the positive progress being made. Collaboration like this strengthens our understanding and keeps us focused on what matters most - delivering meaningful, evidence-led improvement for the Veteran community in Scotland. Grateful to all involved for the continued commitment and partnership.

Honoured to speak last night at the launch of the Service Children's Progression Alliance Impact Centre. This is an important step in putting evaluation and evidence at the heart of support for Service children, ensuring we understand what works, where gaps remain and how we can deliver better outcomes for those who share the unique experiences of Service life.
