@FANDFORUM If you are a service family with additional needs and disabilities do join this organisation for advice and support. Excellent conference today and great to meet people face to face again!

A poignant reminder from @Unique_charity members Jo & Brian about the importance of looking after carers within the #ArmedForces and better #transition from child to adult services.
The Q&A panel have just been joined by Major General James Swift, Chief of Defence People @DefencePeople. It’s good to see this level of support and get our voices heard. #FANDF2021
Q&A Panel just about to start, this is probably the most popular part of the conference and the most emotive as more lived experience comes out #FANDF2021
The most powerful messages come from the experiences of other. Today we’re hearing from committee members Steph Quintrell, Noreen Hamnett, Jo & Brian Gordon #FANDF2021
@PoppyLegion Mind blowing statistic from Beth Colliety, Policy Officer at RBL: 71% of carers in the Armed Forces said caring negatively affected their mental health. Are you one of those affected? Do you feel supported? #FANDF2021
ArmyHIVE is delighted to be supporting @FANDFORUM today at the bi-annual Conference. If you need information on support to disability or additional needs then contact any HIVE.
Michael Shann, Hd of membership & Volunteering @CarersUK is joining us virtually to talk about the work of Carers UK.
Do you consider yourself a carer? #FANDF2021
For forces families with a child or adult with additional needs or a disability, getting the support can be tough.
Hear more about the @FANDFORUM conference with me on 'Totally Connected', Tuesday 5th October on @BFBSRadioHQ
