is offering support to ex-servicemen and women as they try to adapt to a civilian lifestyle, the Burnley Express reports.<\/p>\n<p>The not-for-profit organisation has teamed up with Remploy Burnley to launch the Veterans into Placements programme.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel Hutchinson, the chairman and founder of Salute &ndash; which has disclosed that 46 per cent of the people it has helped have needed advice on housing, benefits or job searches &ndash; noted the individuals involved have &quot;a good work ethic&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;It is difficult for everyone to get a job at the moment but some veterans have complex barriers like depression or post-traumatic stress disorder,&quot; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Hutchinson continued by saying he hopes the scheme will give the former military personnel the &quot;motivational push&quot; required to get out there and gain experience in the working world.<\/p>\n<p>Posted by Mark Wilkins<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801313701-ADNFCR\"
