Scottish Veterans Charter

The Scottish Parliamentary Cross Party Group on Supporting Veterans have agreed a Charter whish it is hoped will be adopted across the whole of Government in Scotland from Parliament through to Local Authorities and other groups. Veterans Scotland encourages its members to lobby for the adoption by all areas of Government and in particular the Scottish and UK political parties.

Veterans Voice

Issues of "Veterans Voice" the newsletter for Veterans Scotland are now available on this page.  It is our intention to publish it at 6 monthly intervals providing we have enough copy to make it a decent read.  

The editor would welcome contributions which may be of interest to our readers. Remember Veterans Scotland has a different roll to that of other Veterans Organisations and we seek to represent the views of Veterans in Government and with other Organisations who have any connection with Veterans.
