Labour — Birmingham Selly Oak

Speaking in the House of Commons on 30 June 2025

Debate

Supporting Veterans

Contribution

The armed forces covenant trust fund is one of the mechanisms we use to support the charitable sector, but we must also step back and look holistically at the fact that there are 1,730 armed forces charities in the UK. Op Valour will help to synthesise that, get more bang for buck and ensure that veterans get the right support where and when they need it.
