Since the inquiry started, Salute Her UK – the only female specific veterans’ charity in a sea of 1,800 other veteran charities – accepted our referrals for serving women and veterans who were suicidal, re-traumatised and in need of immediate support, initiated by the process of giving evidence to the committee. Within two years Salute Her’s caseload increased from 250 to 3,000 and I’m grateful for their support to the inquiry and these women.
