YouTube - Soldiers to receive multi-million pound mental health package 02.02.11
The Deputy Prime Minister acknowledges that the Government has been slow to recognise the urgent needs of Veterans with mental health issues. Will the Government now also acknowledge that many such Veterans end up sleeping rough, using alcohol and drugs to shut out their reality and become involved in crime, only to be sent to prison? As with those suffering physical injuries, these individuals desperately need help and support with rehabilitation, not a criminal record and personal failure. The Veterans Change Partnership is ready to provide.
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.
