The latest podcast from the Service Personnel and Veterans Agency (SPVA) provides an update on a three-year project run by national charity Cruse Bereavement Care, and funded by the Department of Health, developing services for bereaved members of the Armed Forces Community.

Project Manager Jenny Green, said: “The podcast is a great way to provide wider awareness of what the Project hopes to achieve in support of the Armed Forces Community. Our aim is to provide accessible support, establish new services and give service specific training for those who are supporting bereaved people.”

Head of SPVA Media and Communications Laurie Manton added: “SPVA is committed to providing awareness of initiatives and organisations supporting the Armed Forces Community. Since early 2010, SPVA has released a number of podcasts providing information and updates of initiatives and services provided for this important community.”
