EX-SERVICES MENTAL
WELFARE SOCIETY (COMBAT STRESS)The Society is the only organisation specialising in the welfare of
ex-Service men and women from all ranks of HM Forces and the Merchant Navy who
suffer from psychiatric disabilities. The Ex-Services Mental Welfare Society
was founded in the immediate aftermath of the First World War. For over 80
years it has been the only organisation specialising in the care of men and
women of all ranks discharged from the Armed Services and the Merchant Navy who
suffer from injury to the mind. The Society has a regional network of welfare officers throughout the United
Kingdom who visit patients at home or in hospital, and who assist with the
presentation of claims and appeals for War Disablement Pensions. The Society
also has three short-stay treatment and respite care homes. Limited financial
assistance is available.
