Vikki Barr, Armed Forces covenant officer, said: “Local data on Armed Forces members is not currently known, making it hard to create targeted local services.

“All too often, the transition into civilian life can be challenging, with many veterans suffering from poor mental health and unemployment.

“This survey will be invaluable in informing the design of support services in Northamptonshire.”

The survey was launched on February 1 and will run until April 9.
