BBC News - MP Elfyn Llwyd criticises care for military veterans
It is estimated that approximately 6% of prisoners, or those on probation or parole, are ex-servicemen - accurate probation figures are unknown. Many are suffering with various levels of mental health problems, often as a result of their experiences in recent conflicts and the impact that this had on themselves and their family relationships.
Reducing re-offending and social exclusion through innovative training; promoting increased understanding, personal change and skill sets necessary when working with marginalised groups, challenging behaviour and poor motivation. Promoting public debate surrounding the reduction of crime and re-offending, particularly former military veteran offenders. Engaging society and encouraging greater understanding and responsibility.
