Wessex Reserve Forces & Cadets Association Reception
On the afternoon of 24th March, Claire attended a Parliamentary Reception held by the Wessex Reserve Forces & Cadets Association (RFCA). Claire believes Britain's Reserve Forces deserve so much support for what they contribute to the defence of our country. In addition to being a strategic reserve to our Armed Forces, they are increasingly more involved in military operations. In fact, over the last five years, the Reserves have played a vital part in the Army's ability to mount and sustain operations.
Topics discussed at the reception included the ongoing Future Reserves 2020 Study (FR20) which is aiming to align the Reserves with the new strategic defence policy, ensuring they are correctly structured, supported and resourced to meet the challenges of the future.
