💦 Thirsty – being constantly thirsty and not being able to quench it

There are so many tragic and distressing stories of war in the news, this can be a difficult and triggering time for veterans.

Did you know that there are 17.4 million veterans in England alone, many of whom have specific health needs but won’t ask for help as they feel they’ll be misunderstood by healthcare professionals?

Please ask for help, we are a veteran friendly practice.
