📢 See @Cobseo Chair's quote below ⬇️⬇️
“Most of our service personnel join well, serve well, and leave well to continue leading valued and fulfilled lives, but there are some members of our Armed Forces Community who require additional specialised care as a result of service.
📢The nation’s Armed Forces community are set to receive better and more personalised healthcare support in recognition of their service to this country, thanks to a major new training programme for NHS staff. cobseo.org.uk/health-boost-f… @DefenceHQ
