More details
Services such as Salute in Burnley Lancashire provide support and counselling for armed forces veterans.In order to survive they need to be funded appropriately.This year they were given £20,000 less than the previous year and yet have a greater demand and an expanding waiting list.The demand for these services is high and the funding is lacking.Support our brave soldiers in the aftercare they deserve.
