Provide funding to expand Veterans UK helpline services

Closed 52 signatures

What the petition asks

Allow workers for the MOD helpline for heroes to stay open for ex and serving military personnel who have mental health problems. Even letting them work from home would achieve this.
Many serving and ex-soldiers suffer these problems so just even a moment with someone of the same background or correct training could help with just a small amount of expertise. Thus understanding more of the mental health and wellbeing of ex-soldiers.
