Why do people join the armed forces? How do they meet these needs when they're no longer serving in the military? Why are there so many former veterans in prison? Heidi Rose Tranter talks about her reseach exploring men's motivations for joining the armed forces.  Heidi is a PhD student at the University of Central Lancashire. Alongside this, she works as a Research Associate at GMMH NHS Foundation Trust and delivers on the Inner Strength Programme (which supports individuals experiencing domestic conflict).  Previously, she’s worked within CAMHS, primary care and forensic services, providing therapeutic support to both children and young people as well as adults. She’s also been involved in research exploring the effects of experiencing adversity during childhood on emotional resilience.
