Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for winning this award, at this inaugural event. Standing on the legacy of the personnel who served during the military ban on LGBTQ+ people, I intend to continue the phenomenal progress that’s been made!
Moving onto the third award of the LGBTQ+ Defence Awards and the Rising Star of the Year award goes to… Lt Bradley Setchell of Queen Alexandra’s Royal Army Nursing Corps @qarancassn. Well done Lt Setchell! #lgbtqdefenceawards
