Today, on Armistice Day, we pause to honour all those who have served. 🎖️

If you've served in the UK armed forces, it's important to tell your GP surgery. Letting your GP know about your service means your medical record reflects your history and can help you get referred to specialist veteran services if you need them.

When you register with a GP, share any medical documents from your military medical officer if you have them. In England, NHS services such as Op COURAGE (mental health and wellbeing) and Op RESTORE (physical health problems resulting from service) are there to support veterans, with similar services in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Anything you share with your GP is confidential. 💙

Today, on Remembrance Day, we pause to remember and honour all those who have served, those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and those who continue to serve our country.

We will remember them, their courage, their bravery and the sacrifices made by them and their families.

From everyone at The Cambridge Practice, we pay our respects to our Armed Forces community, veterans and serving personnel.

❤️ Lest we forget. 🌺

This Remembrance Sunday, we remember all those who have served and those who gave their lives.

We also want veterans, service leavers, reservists and their families to know that support is available.

In England, Op COURAGE is an NHS mental health and wellbeing service for people who have served in the UK armed forces. It can help with early signs of mental health problems through to more complex difficulties and psychological trauma, as well as support with the move to civilian life.

You can contact Op COURAGE directly, ask your GP to refer you, or be referred by an armed forces charity. 💙
