Welcome to the Autumn/ Winter edition of our Armed Forces stakeholder brief. To mark this year’s Remembrance, NHS England and our partner Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) are urging GP practices to become veteran friendly accredited and prevent ‘silently struggling’ veterans from delaying seeking medical help.
Taking place on 6 July 2024 on the River Avon in Monkton Park, Chippenham, this event promises a fun-filled day with your colleagues or friends whilst making a meaningful impact on the lives of those who have risked everything to keep us safe.
