Veteran Informed Prisons: A Guide to Improving the Health and Well-being of Prisoners in Wales who are Veterans

Abstract: ‘Veteran Informed Prisons: A guide to improving the health and well-being of prisoners in Wales who are veterans’ is intended to support commissioners, planners and staff across health and prison services in Wales. It has been produced by a Task & Finish Group (see Annex E) comprising representatives of the Welsh Government, NHS Wales, the National Offender Management Service (NOMS), prison staff, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) and third sector support organisations for ex-service personnel. All share a common interest: to ensure that prisoners in Wales who are veterans of the Armed Forces have their health and welfare needs met.
