Help for Heroes restores veteran Paul’s Christmas spirit

Help for Heroes restored Paul’s home and supported his recovery, enabling him to reconnect with music and community after service-related trauma and injury.

  • Help for Heroes assigned a case manager and coordinated with a partner charity to restore Paul’s utilities after his call marked a turning point.
  • A DIY accident left Paul, veteran, with permanent nerve damage and unable to work, while service trauma after the Band of the Grenadier Guards led him into debt, depression, and isolation.
  • Grants finished Paul’s long-abandoned kitchen, and he now attends Help for Heroes Recovery College and plays with Lewis Merthyr brass band.
  • Paul says `They helped me realise I’m not alone` and `I’m not broken – I’m healing`, describing Yvonne, Help for Heroes case manager, as his `guardian angel` who `helped improve his situation`.
  • Help for Heroes is asking the public to send messages of hope at helpforheroes.org.uk this Christmas to show veterans like Paul they are respected, appreciated, and not forgotten.
