Closed Reinstate mandatory national service

Closed on

We believe young people would benefit from the structure of national service. We therefore want the Government to reinstate mandatory national service for all UK residents.

Veterans, including homeless veterans, could be engaged to help support young people engaged in national service. I believe they could be great mentor to our young people, and in particular be able to give an insight into the mental health side of things.
