Showed my support for the Armed Forces Covenant at the Royal British Legion Parliamentary drop-in last week I strongly support our manifesto commitment of putting the Covenant fully into law. #committedtothecovenant

Honoured to have attended the Armed Forces Covenant Parliamentary Reception with the Royal British Legion recently. The reception was a valuable opportunity to hear directly from veterans, serving personnel, and military families. It was great to hear the Minister for Veterans

As a member of the Armed Forces Parliamentary Scheme, I have seen first-hand the incredible work and bravery displayed by members of our military, who every day go to work willing to put their lives at risk to keep all of us safe. 🇬🇧 That’s why it was great to attend a reception

Today is Armed Forces Day – a chance to say thank you to all those serving. From peacekeeping to humanitarian aid and emergency response, their work protects us at home and abroad. Their service and sacrifice must never be forgotten.

Sam always dreamed of joining the RAF and working in medicine. She achieved that after qualifying in 2017, and later caring for Covid-19 patients. However, a knee injury at an athletics event led Sam to another purpose - competing for Team UK at the 2025 Invictus Games. (1/2)
