Stories from the Frontline: Healthcare and the Armed Forces Community

We’re working with the NHS to hear from the Armed Forces community about their experiences of local healthcare.

We want to find out what veterans, non-mobilised reservists, serving personnel and their families think about accessing healthcare locally, does it meet their needs and are they receiving the specialised support they are entitled to?

This is a valuable opportunity to shape how care can be improved for the Armed Forces community and builds on our previous work from 2021 which looked at Improving Healthcare Access for Veterans and our efforts to encourage GPs and hospitals to become veteran accredited.

We are inviting members of the local Armed Forces community to take part in one-to-one interviews or focus groups. Participants will each receive a £10 voucher for taking part.
