Welcome, this web page is set out to help you and your friends find information and support for the invisible injuries that you may have received as a result of serving our country in the British Armed Forces. These injuries are sometimes referred to as ‘combat trauma’ and comprise a number of mental health disorders; including anxiety, depression, adjustment reactions, increased use of alcohol and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

We pray that as you use this signposting webpage you will find the right form of support for you personally, and that you will realise that you are not alone.  Our prayer is that the information we provide will help you feel more equipped to take a step forward on the journey to recovery and that you will see God’s love for you through the support of the charities and organisations you chose to contact.  Please be assured of our on-going prayers for you here at AFCU.
