@poppyscotland Moving can result in losing places on waiting lists for essential services like dentistry and GPs. And delays in accessing services can lead to late diagnoses and increased health-related anxiety. 2/6
@poppyscotland Around 121,600 children have a parent serving in the Armed Forces. They often face unique educational challenges, including difficulties with school allocations, making friends, and coping with fragmented syllabuses. 3/6
@poppyscotland Families with children who have Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) struggle to obtain assessments and necessary educational support due to the unpredictable nature of their moves. 4/6
@poppyscotland Personnel leaving service can face similar challenges, having to wait until they have left to register in the area they will live in, despite many other transition preparations being underway long before this. 5/6
@poppyscotland Introducing a national protocol for consistent public service access and increased SEND support funding for service children would ensure our military families get the support they deserve. To read more about our 2024 Manifesto priorities, visit: rbl.org.uk/Manifesto2024 6/6
