An army veteran from Kidderminster wants to encourage others who may be experiencing challenges to get the support they need to turn their lives around. With more than 167,000 veterans living across the West Midlands, the veterans’ charity Help for Heroes believes there may be others who are suffering in silence, who would benefit from their support.
Tim Seeley, aged 58, left the army after a 10-year career, as a medic and a First Aid instructor, and has been attending the Help for Heroes Community Sports Series. He’d been struggling to manage PTSD and a back injury, which affected his mental health and left him isolated.
