CO-OPERATION BY SERVICE CHARITIES

Early day motion 639, tabled 3 November 2015 by Julian Lewis (Conservative). Signed by 56 members.

That this House recognises the need for greater co-operation between separate Services Charities: accordingly, welcomes the recent battlefield tour, for wounded veterans of all ages, to Ypres, organised and run by The Not Forgotten Association in co-operation with the British Limbless Ex-Servicemen's Association and Combat Stress; acknowledges, in this Great War centenary period, the huge medical advances for injured personnel made at Lijssenthoek Military Hospital in World War One, and the continuing ceremonies at the Menin Gate; and encourages similar future collaboration by Service Charities in support of wounded and disabled veterans.

Signatures by party: Labour 22, Conservative 14, Scottish National Party 11, DUP 5, UUP 2, Independent 1, Labour/Co-operative 1.
