One helpful individual in the queue at Barclays yesterday suggested #VeteransCard could be used to 'chop up Charlie'. He followed it by putting a finger on a nostril & sniffing with the other nostril. It would be easy to tut about "the youth of today" had he not been at least 70

The issue I'm trying to solve in the scenario is using it as positive, accepted ID to solve one of the major problems getting back on your feet... so unfortunately another fail.

you are on the electoral role... and have a credit record associated with the home address. Two issues that are traditionally an issue if eg. Released from custody, been homeless, recovering from addiction, debt ... you could go on...

Day 2 Reporting from the Veterans Card Challenge: Attended Barclays. Was told that Military ID was sufficient for Photo ID, however the Veterans Card was not classed as a Military ID. That's surely the point that needs addressing. The online application requires no ID if

DAY1: What can I do with my Veterans Card? SCENARIO 1. Soldier A becomes Veteran A. Veteran A ends up with no bank account, no ID & no money. But he has a Veterans Card. Halifax Bank: Open account 👎 Tomorrow I will report my findings at 5 other High Street Banks.

Veterans Card - What can I do with it? What practical uses does the card have? If the answer is 'not many' then the next question is: How do we go about changing that? Every day I will be testing in the real world exactly what i can and cannot do with my Veterans Card.

I have just been reading about the Veterans Card that are few and far between... despite 1.8m veterans in England & Wales alone, only 56,000 have been distributed. I noticed at the same time they had time to form a Central Digital Data Office in early 2021. Sounds Orwellian

every penny is accounted for! Directly to the actual cause. We don't even claim expenses. Serving even after service because we don't leave anyone behind, we made a promise to our brother and sisters in arms. That still stands.

a bit like Matt Hancock did with the PPE contract at the start of the pandemic. We are looking for corporate/commercial sponsors to pay the bill on the phone which will free us to raise money for the centre.. or better still, anyone wanting their name connected to the centre...

connected in some way to the charity and people in positions of power... PLUS there appears to be some cash for contracts issues, where the facilities used are those that are friends or family members who own them (so they get the contract and the money)

That means the MOD are not liable any more... and worse than that we found out through some basic online detective work that anyone can do.... that these residential programmes are a tool to release money from the charity funds and the buildings are often owned by people

to executives and everybody else, but they are known to offer 6 to 12 weeks residential placements to veterans (who often don't want to be away again) and if they refuse, their records are marked with REFUSED MEDICAL TREATMENT

without fear of losing our funding. unfortunately in the past, people have supported the big charities like Help4Heroes and Saafa in good faith but we found some interesting information out which alarmed us, so we are doing something about it. Not only do they pay huge salaries
