armed forces memorial board not fit for purpose honouring suicide men and women

the armed forces memorial is there to honour servicemen and women that died because of their service the criteria due to suicide needs a re-think in its application to honour these brave servicemen and women that suffered the trauma of war.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you would like to see armed services personnel who took their own lives remembered but this is already the case.

Under current guidance if death of a serviceman or woman occurred outside of a designated military operation and the evidence suggests that the individual’s suicide was occasioned as a direct result of the special circumstances of Service in the Armed Forces, their names may be included on the Armed Forces Memorial and the Roll of Honour. You can read the full guidance below: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1003898/Armed_Forces_Memorial-Bereaved_Families_Guide-May_21.pdf

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do differently to the current process

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
