This is a great step for veterans in Wales.
We have worked in collaboration with @ScotVeteranComm – FiMT was quoted in reports on transition, housing, employment & learning and health & wellbeing for Scottish veterans. We will offer the Commissioner the same support for Wales.

Not one veteran in Scotland of any age who needs a hand has to wonder how they or their dependants will get to a vaccination appointment. You can all help by telling your own GP surgery, pharmacy or carers and link workers about Fares4free

The evaluation also tested the viability of the online platform developed by video technology company @OdroUK.
It found it was an effective platform which both mentors and mentees felt comfortable and confident using.
