Furthermore, a multi-million investment was secured within the Government\u2019s September 2019 Spending Review to enhance the DWP Armed Forces Champion role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This project links to the existing prestigious <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.welfareconditionality.ac.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Welfare Conditionality: Sanctions, Support and Behaviour Change<\/a><\/em> project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Central to our work is a desire to establish an original evidence base to inform future policy and practice in relation to Service leavers and their families.
