NHS Veteran Aware
Hospitals and Health Care
Supporting NHS trusts, and other healthcare providers, to meet the needs of the Armed Forces community.
About us
NHS Veteran Aware accredited NHS trusts, and other healthcare providers, have demonstrated their commitment to providing the best care for, and support to, the Armed Forces community in their area. Accreditation involves providers sharing good practice, linking with local services for the Armed Forces Community and increasing staff understanding of how they can support the Armed Forces community. Our ambition is to accredit all NHS providers in England as Veteran Aware and continue to support those trusts that have already accredited.

Many, many congratulations to veteran and Armed Forces PPV member Greg Stevenson and rowing partner Lauren Rowles for achieving 🥇 in the PR2 mixed double sculls, this morning! An outstanding effort, and a thrilling final 100 meters! #Paralympics #Paris2024 #ArmedForces NHS England
Today we’re celebrating Gregg, and his journey from the Army, to the NHS, to the Paralympics! After sustaining injuries in the Army in Afghanistan and losing both his legs, Gregg struggled with depression and PTSD. ‘I started going back to the gym and being active, and I was more motivated. I didn’t think it would be possible to get back to doing what I used to do, but I started to feel like the old me again.’ Wanting to share his new-found motivation with others, Gregg joined Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust’s Mobility Rehabilitation Centre, where he helped other military amputees and wheelchair users. ‘I have developed massively as a person both personally and professionally thanks to the support I have received from the NHS. I enjoy seeing people do well and overcoming barriers.’ Now, Gregg has set his sights on his next challenge — the Paralympics! After becoming European and World Champion, he is currently representing Team GB at the Paris Paralympic Games. With his crewmate Lauren, he set the world’s best time in an undefeated season in the PR2 category in the qualifying! Wishing the best of luck to Gregg and all our Team GB Paralympians! 💙 #WeAreTheNHS #Paris2024 #ParalympicsGB
