The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to support veterans in South Dorset constituency.

Answered by Mr Calvin Bailey

The collaborative approach in South Dorset is a great example, delivering really effective outcomes – the county council, health services, and the local charity network all working together with us to provide real support. This, alongside the Veterans Strategy and VALOUR, means that veterans in your constituency are able to access timely and really effective help when they need it.
