Dave, a Lance Corporal, has been part of the programme and enjoyed huge benefits. He said: 鈥淭he Warrior Programme has allowed me to really understand myself as a human being. It鈥檚 cleared the fog. The experience on the course was completely unexpected. It鈥檚 reset my mind back to 20 plus years ago when I was happier.

鈥淢e and my wife were never happier than when I was a Lance Corporal and life seemed simpler. Now we鈥檙e back there. The course has taken out almost all of the stress. I used to go to a very dark place. Now it鈥檚 filled with chinks of light. It鈥檚 life-changing.鈥�
