I would like all military veterans to receive free train travel in the UK

Closed 2,670 signatures

What the petition asks

To support current military veterans and homeless veterans with free travel on trains within the UK to support with social, mental welfare and support.
Reducing stress, anxiety and the chance to mix with likeminded persons who may also be suffering with issues from leaving the services.

Currently veterans will meet annually to mix with old comrades and to get the feeling of support that we don’t feel we get from our normal lives. The people missing from these events are the homeless Vets and PTSD suffers who struggle on a daily basis. I see this as an area that other Vets can support struggling veterans with one to one meetings or planned events. This could reduce suicides and reduce strains on the NHS. The number of travel could be set minimum of 3 per year.
