A report from The Northern Hub for Veterans and Military Families Research at Northumbria University, has identified new approaches which may help prevent suicide.
This report is an evaluation of the first year of the Veterans’ Places, Pathways and People programme, part of the Veterans’ Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund.
On the 11 October 2023, the Trust hosted the One Is Too Many: Suicide Prevention Conference. This impact conference showcased the excellent work taking place by the funded projects, and revealed the findings from the programme evaluation, undertaken by the University of Chester.
The Fighting Chance received £19,843 from the Trust in 2018 for a one-year project as part of the Local Grant programme. The Fighting Chance for Veterans project funded an intensive employment support project which links health and wellbeing with employment support to help extremely vulnerable veterans to get their lives “back on track’. The project is for those veterans who are the furthest from entering the labour market, and those struggling with isolation, housing issues or substance misuse.
The Veterans Should Not Be Forgotten programme awarded 120 grants to organisations across the UK, totalling £2,394,698.
This programme evaluation explores the impact of the Veterans Should Not Be Forgotten programme on vulnerable veterans with reduced social contact.
