Jay Tells us More about the Fundraising
What the charity do:
Providing support for veterans who need it the most
At Walking With The Wounded, we empower veterans by reigniting their sense of purpose, enabling them to make a positive contribution to their communities and lead independent lives.
Whether mentally, physically or socially wounded we support ex-service personnel and their families most in need. We offer personalised employment support, mental health and well-being support, and support care coordination to help veterans who are struggling after military service.
