It was a pleasure to host Veterans' Commissioner for Wales, James Phillips, yesterday and showcase some of the fantastic work happening in Scotland to support the veteran community and hear about initiatives for veterans in Wales. We met with a range of services including @scotvetres, @ghh_ssafa, the Defence Medical Welfare Service, and Scotland's Bravest Manufacturing Company (SBMC).
It was inspiring to hear veterans share the transformative support and opportunities these organisations have offered them.
