Provide more support for military veterans with PTSD

Petition Details

Ensure benefits available to former military service personnel and those who have died in service are also available to veterans suffering from PTSD, with dedicated support from the Ministry of Defence for this group.

Additional Information

Many veterans have suffered and died as a result of PTSD. These individuals are not recognised as casualties of war and do not receive enough support from the Ministry of Defence. There’s no such thing as an uninjured soldier. The Government should provide additional support for veterans suffering from PTSD, for example helping them to claim war pensions they are entitled to and financial assistance with arranging a military funeral.
