Brokenshire Announces Funding Boost For Homeless Veterans


Veterans who have become homeless, or at risk of it, will be supported through an extra £1 million boost. The money will help ensure those who have served their country have a roof over their heads and have the support they need once leaving the Armed Forces. Money could also be used to direct former soldiers to existing specialist support services on offer, such as access to supported housing and training for staff on mental health issues, including PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and how to support those former service personnel who may initially be reluctant to receive help.
