FINALIST 2026
The experiences of some who serve can change their lives forever.
In our new film, Army veteran Kevin shares how his experiences as a combat medic in Afghanistan led to him developing PTSD, which threatened to destroy his life until our specialist mental health treatment changed everything for him.
Please note that this film contains sound effects of children playing, crowd noises and a description of the aftermath of a mass casualty event that included children.
We believe military trauma shouldn’t destroy the lives of veterans and their families. When some military personnel leave service, their experiences can’t easily be left behind, and without treatment, psychological trauma can eventually tear lives apart.
We have over 100 years of experience caring for veterans and our role today is to help those with some of the most complex challenges arising from military service, like PTSD. Through our clinical research we work closely with veterans to better understand trauma recovery and continually develop our cutting-edge mental health expertise.
We deliver life-changing treatment, bringing together in-house professionals with specialist focus to meet individual needs, helping veterans on their journey to recovery. It’s a service that thousands depend on.
No one else does what we do. We are Combat Stress, the UK’s leading charity for veterans’ mental health. At a time that can be isolating and daunting, help us treat and support more veterans.
By tackling their past, they can take on the future.
We align with the following UN Sustainable Development Goals:
