Poppy Scotland Supported Employment

Poppyscotland supports veterans and their dependants in Scotland through the help of dedicated volunteers and donors.

Poppyscotland has commissioned a new piece of research to find out what help ex-Forces personnel need to find work after their time in the military – and how that help can be best provided. The research report will go to the Government, the Forces, and to all other veterans’ organisations.

They are are keen for as many veterans as possible to complete a short survey about their experiences of looking for and getting a job outside the forces – and in particular about any hurdles veterans have had to overcome.

Everyone who completes the survey will have their name entered into a prize draw – with the winner receiving a Christmas Hamper worth £100!
