Closed 211 signatures

What the petition asks

Combat Stress is the UK's best charity helping veterans in dire need of support and treatment from PTSD. The NHS has decided to remove ALL FUNDING for the charity £15M annually. This is a disgrace and an outrage as Combat Stress has the most experienced professional staff to deal with PTSD!
Combat Stress currently provide residential courses for 1 week as a preparation for treatment, the 6 week intensive therapy course has helped veterans from all conflicts deal with their symptoms, nightmares, night terrors, anxiety and soo much more. Don't abandon us now, help our veterans access this essential treatment. The NHS propose that all veterans should attend a day centre which is totally unrealistic, just ask the mental health professionals at Combat Stress. Please sign this petition!!
