Please see below an invitation from the Unforgotten Forces partner the Scottish Older People's Assembly (SOPA) for veterans aged 65 and older to attend an engagement event taking place at the Legion Club in Bathgate on Thu 13th June. The views, voices, issues and opinions gathered at this event will then be taken to SOPA's annual Scottish Parliamentary Assembly at Holyrood later this year in October. As such this will be a good opportunity for older veterans to help influence parliament and politicians etc. in regard to the issues that affect or matter to them. Refreshments, lunch and musical entertainment will also be provided (for free!). Should you have any queries about this event, or wish to book a place, please contact Caroline Clark at SOPA on e mail: caroline@scotopa.org.uk<mailto:caroline@scotopa.org.uk> or tel: 0131 357 1277  Consultation on Scottish Fire and Rescue Service Strategic Plan 2019-22
