On behalf of 1st Battalion Royal Anglian Regiment- The Vikings
Leading up to World Mental Health Day (Monday 10th October 2022) 1 Royal Anglian will be participating in a number of events to raise as much money as possible to be distributed equally between different charities which offer support to serving personnel and Veterans.
Last year, we as a battalion and his family, lost a much loved and well respected serving platoon SGT who lost his own battle with PTSD. It came as a surprise to everyone. And we are not alone in this- there was estimated to be equivalent to 1 suicide of a Veteran/ serving personnel a day in the UK last year and 22 a day world-wide.
