A NEW course for veterans with mental health problems has been launched in Essex.
Anglia Ruskin University teamed up with Colchester Garrison to develop the course, which is the first of its kind in the UK.
The Masters Degree (MSc) in Military and Veteran Mental Health offers training for those working with military veterans.
Consultant Psychiatrist Lt Col (Retd) Mike Srinivasan of the MoD said: “The Department of Community Mental Health at Colchester Garrison have been involved with the development of this innovative and much-needed course right from the project’s initial conception.”
