Reaching Crisis Point

Since 2018, Help for Heroes has provided tailored support to 35 very seriously injured veterans, many of whom require round-the-clock care due to brain or spinal injuries. The charity also supports their families, offering practical and emotional assistance to alleviate the stress of caregiving, ensuring they can be family members first.

Our Stories

Simon

Army Veteran

Simon was told he’d likely remain in a vegetative state and only be able to blink.

In their prime these were adventurous and active men and women. Who they are as people hasn’t changed.

"I like it when someone says, you’ll never do that, because I try to prove them wrong. I can live life and I can enjoy it."

For veterans like Simon, recovery isn’t linear, they’ll face issues for the rest of their lives and it’s important they do not face these alone.

Too often, our most seriously injured veterans are defined by their injuries rather than their ambitions – we want to reverse this.
