Today, Health Secretary @VictoriaMAtkins and I hosted @NHSArmedForces staff and @NHSOpRestore service users in Downing Street.
Thank you to the armed forces community for your sacrifices to this nation, and to the NHS for supporting them through their recovery journeys.

Toby was shot in the neck in Afghanistan in 2009. Today we’ve reinstated the Veterans mobility Fund to ensure people like him never pay for their mobility needs.

Op RESTORE supports veterans in England who have served in the UK Armed Forces & have continuing, physical health injuries attributed to their service.
@JohnnyMercerUK spoke to service users like Maurillia about how the service benefitted them 👇

The government wants the UK to be the best place for veterans to live in the world. There is still time to complete the Veterans' Survey to gather views from the UK veteran community on how to shape future services.

There are 5 days left in the @BigGive #ChristmasChallenge21 - But we have a long way to go to hit our target! ❄️
For one week, all of your donations will be doubled - at no cost to you. This means we can have twice the impact on injured Veterans. 🎖️

“If the socket doesn’t fit, is uncomfortable or doesn’t feel secure, the other components will not matter because you’re probably not going to wear it. The positive impact of advanced technologies and innovative clinical techniques makes this a good time to be a prosthetic user”
