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.
Wigan Warriors Community Foundation received a Local Grants award of £8,000 in 2018 to fund “Rugby Memories”, a project aimed at bringing together older veterans (who may or may not have dementia), serving personnel and their families in a social setting to forge friendships and ease loneliness through a shared experience and love of rugby.
This evaluation explores the impact of both the Families in Stress and Removing Barriers to Family Life programmes, which awarded just under £4.34 million and just under £7.12 million respectively between 2016 and 2020.
