Tom Dalby, CEO at Defence Discount Service, commented on the discounts available for World Mental Health Day:

“The Armed Forces Community have been at the crux of the Covid-19 pandemic, helping to keep us safe and playing a vital role in helping the UK to adapt and respond to the ongoing challenges. This can understandably cause psychological strain, and we want to highlight just how important it is to speak out if any of our community is struggling with their mental health. This could be talking to a friend, a qualified counsellor, or contacting Samaritans. 

“Alongside breaking the stigma around speaking out on mental health issues, it’s also so important to take the time to do things which will help you to improve your physical and mental health. Whether this is going for a run, treating yourself to a day at the spa or spending more time out in green space, we really do hope that Defence Discount Service members make sure that they carve out time to look after themselves and rightly take advantage of these offers.”
