I gave blood yesterday, a small act that saves lives. We encourage everyone in the RAF to donate if they can. Huge thanks to NHS Blood+Transplant and our own RAF Medical Services for their vital work supporting donation and saving lives every day. #GiveBlood

Pleased to welcome the National Armaments Director and head of Defence Equipment & Support to UK Space Command yesterday. Space is increasingly vital to the country's security and prosperity. We will need the National Armament Director and his team's help to deliver our growing space capabilities.

Yesterday, I visited 78 Squadron (Swanwick), a vital part of the Air Command & Control Force within RAF Global Enablement. The dedicated team manage Air Traffic, Airspace Management, & Air Defence sections - all vital to the RAF. Their work with NATS ensure safe skies over the UK.

I visited Operation Chessman in Poland on Friday. RAF Typhoons are flying alongside Swedish Air Force Gripen conducting vital NATO air policing missions. It’s a powerful demonstration of the strength of our alliance and the critical role it plays in deterring our adversaries.

The Beyond the Blue series showcases some of the vital roles that our people do and why the Royal Air Force is #NoOrdinaryJob.

I participated in a RUSI Land Conference panel with my military counterparts from the Army, Navy and StratCom, hosted by Paul O’Neill from RUSI. With the announcement of the SDR, an integrated force has never been more vital to ensure we are always ready to fly and fight.

I enjoyed meeting the most recent graduates of the RAF LEAD (Leadership, Exploration and Development) programme. This is a challenging 12-month course, completed alongside current roles for personnel to gain leadership capability. Congratulations LEAD graduates!

This is a profound step for UK Defence. The threat we face is more serious than at any time since the Cold War. Equipping the RAF with F-35A jets demonstrates our unshakable commitment to NATO, and further deters those who would do the UK and our allies harm.

As part of Windsor Leadership 30th anniversary, I joined their Question Time on 'Leading in these uncertain times'. The Royal Air Force strives to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow and I was proud to represent the RAF here today.

It is an immense honour to be appointed as the new Chief of Defence Staff and to have the privilege of leading our fantastic Armed Forces in protecting the UK, our allies and our interests around the world.

Proud to have attended Saturday’s Armed Forces Day event. I’ve served for many years, and I know how vital it is, now more than ever that our personnel are recognised and valued. In an uncertain world, celebrating their commitment and sacrifice is an honour. #ArmedForcesDay

Great to be at RAF Brize Norton yesterday, meeting the exceptional people who work tirelessly and professionally to serve our country and all of those who live here. I am proud of Stn Cdr Lou and the team and what they do every single day. What they do, and what we do, matters.

Honoured to be in Berlin to meet Lt Gen Neumann, the new Chief of Team Luftwaffe. As NATO allies, we’re committed to joint security, Trinity House agreement & staying ready to fly & fight. I look forward to hosting him at the Global Air & Space Conference x.com/GermanyNATO/st…

Privileged to attend RAF Halton Apprentices' Association Trenchard Legacy Unveiling & Reunion National Memorial Arboretum. A powerful reminder of our Service roots & times we've served through. Always an honour to meet & celebrate with retired and serving RAF personnel, thank you all.

Developing talent is a top RAF priority. Recently, I visited the Defence School of Logistics & Administration to meet trainees from Logistics & People Ops. Enablers are vital, the RAF can’t protect the skies without them. Honoured to present awards recognising their impact.

I am absolutely delighted that Air Marshal Harv Smyth has been selected as the next Chief of the Air Staff, and I have every confidence that he will lead the Royal Air Force brilliantly and make sure we are ready to fly and fight. x.com/RoyalAirForce/…
