Create a priority housing, healthcare and welfare system for veterans

Closed 121 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government should create a priority system for veterans that entitles them to priority over housing and other welfare benefits, and funds priority health services for veterans.
British veterans have made significant sacrifices for our country, and it's crucial to ensure they receive the support they need. Prioritising them in their housing, healthcare and welfare services can be a way to show gratitude for their service. At the same time, it's important to approach the issue with compassion and fairness, considering the needs of all individuals.
