The election's over. 31,000 signatures on the Veteran's Pledge. 1,170 supporters wrote to their local candidates. Over 50 candidates, spanning all major parties, publicly showed their support to the Veterans Pledge. Now, what? We are ready to work alongside policymakers to ensure all government departments recognise their responsibilities to veterans and their families. The King's Speech on 17 July will set out the new Prime Minister's legislative agenda and his government's upcoming priorities. We welcome the Labour Party’s election manifesto commitment to enshrine the Armed Forces Covenant fully into law - national government and a wider range of policy areas must be brought within its scope.

For some, when a conflict ends, the battles don't stop - they just stop making headlines.   Veterans and their families are struggling with painful injuries, mental trauma, isolation, and more.   This is the Veterans War. A war forgotten by many. But not by us.     We're at their side. Giving life-changing support. For as long as it takes.

Army veteran Kevin Muldoon has suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder since his first tour of Northern Ireland 49 years ago. Over the years, it robbed him of his family, home and health. "Help for Heroes has helped me turn my life around. The scars won’t go away and I still have the nightmares; but now I also have hope and a reason to live. Thank you for helping me find that again.” If you're thinking of leaving a gift to Help for Heroes in your Will, Kev is living proof of the difference you can make.
