The Veterans War - fighting for peace

Military service is a selfless act. It appeals to the bravest among us. And it can be one of the most exciting and rewarding careers going.   

But sometimes, what you give to your country comes at a huge cost. Physically, psychologically and financially. Denying you the peace you deserve.  

Right now, in homes up and down the country, too many veterans and their family members are fighting personal daily battles. Pain, mental trauma, poverty, and isolation are putting people’s lives on hold.  

This is the struggle of everyday people right here in our communities. A parent at the school gates. The person behind you in the supermarket queue. The elderly gentleman nursing a cup of tea at home alone on your street. A young woman at the bus stop. 

Having sacrificed so much on our behalf, we must not leave them to fight alone.   

We all have a duty to stand with those who served and make sure they and their families get the life-changing support they urgently need.    

Together we must fight for the peace our Armed Forces community deserves and end the Veterans War.
