Veterans Foundation supports SWV research into PTSD

We are delighted to announce that the Veteran’s Foundation have generously awarded SWV a much appreciated grant to support research into the societal effects of PTSD.

PTSD affects not only the sufferer but their family, friends and colleagues. The effect for society is wide reaching and expensive both in terms of the human cost and the cost to society as whole. In a first for the UK, Supporting Wounded Veterans have commissioned a study to investigate this. We hope that initial results will become available later in the year.

The Veterans Foundation has been set up to help fund charities and other charitable organisations that are helping serving and former members of the Armed Forces, and their dependants, who are in need.”

As a fellow Veteran’s Charity, the Veteran’s Foundation also strive to improve the lives of injured Veterans across the UK and, as always, we are very grateful for their support.
