Support scheme for veterans with post traumatic stress expands

A support service for veterans suffering post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is to be be rolled out across Wales.

Change Step uses former service personnel to help others with mental health issues, loneliness, welfare or addiction problems.
It was started in 2012 by Llandudno-based drug and alcohol charity CAIS.
It will now be expanded across Wales after the Armed Forces Covenant (Libor) Fund gave £1m to the scheme.
It is thought around 4% of military veterans suffer some kind of mental health crisis, as a result of serving in a combat zone. In Wales, there were 300 referrals for help from the charity in just five months.
The project sees volunteers befriend former service personnel to help them address substance misuse problems or PTSD.
