2018 Armed Forces Covenant Conference

17 October, Cardiff City Stadium, Leckwith Road, Cardiff, CF11 8AZ

You are invited to attend the Welsh Government’s Armed Forces Covenant Conference.

The conference will provide all Armed Forces Champions (Local Authority, Local Health Board, Probation, Department of Work and Pensions and third sector organisations) with an opportunity to come together to determine improvements in delivery of joint services. Attendees will be able to share good practice and discuss opportunities for better information gathering, improved signposting and collaboration between all support organisations, providing advice and support to the Armed Forces community in Wales.

All Local Authorities have signed Community Covenants and so the conference will provide an opportunity for progress and good practice to be shared and future priorities discussed.

Registration will be from 10:00 – 10:45. The conference will commence at 10:45 and close at 15:15. Lunch will be provided.

As part of the event you will be given the opportunity to discuss issues with other Champions and support organisations, both locally regionally and nationally. A key note speech will be provided by Alun Davies AM, Cabinet Secretary for Local Government and Public Services.

The programme for the day will follow shortly. If you wish to attend the event, we would be grateful if you could contact ArmedForces@gov.wales no later than 26 September 2018. Please note that places are limited. Should we exceed delegate numbers a reserve list will be in place.
