Cyber & Specialist Operations Command: Empowering people to drive change where needed 

Air Marshal Clare Walton CB KHP, Director General Defence Medical Services, shares her message of support 

As the Most Improved Charter Signatory partner 2025, Cyber and Specialist Operations Command are proud to support and celebrate the remarkable efforts of this year’s nominations. 

The Most Improved Charter Award recognises an organisation that has made significant and measurable progress in its commitment to the Women in Defence Charter. This award is not about perfection—it’s about momentum, dedication, and the courage to change. It reflects a genuine shift in culture, leadership, and accountability and celebrates those who have made a strong sustained commitment to embed gender balance, foster inclusion, and create environments where women can thrive and lead. 

The journey of improvement is ongoing, and this award honours those who are not only moving forward but inspiring others to do the same. It’s a testament to what can be achieved when organisations listen, learn, and lead with purpose. I look forward to hearing the inspiring stories and gathering ideas how we can continue to get better together.
