View the V! In this case a Van!
My posting for the group, ‘Smile on Saturday’, theme ‘View the V’ is this van from a little known but very important veterans charity based here in Newark.
Care after Combat is a veterans charity which provides support to veterans of the UK armed forces and their families in England and Wales, particularly those navigating the Criminal Justice System.
Their work aims to address the significant challenges veterans can find when reintegrating into civilian life, especially if they become involved with the justice system and these include issues around mental health, lack of support and social isolation.
On notification of a veteran in custody, CAC will make contact with the individual and, if in a prison that we have full access to, will interview them on a face to face basis and identify their needs and requirements. This may range from practical support in obtaining training for employment, signposting for accommodation or finance or substance misuse liaison to complex mental health support.
