The Hunger Gate is proud to support and promote PTSD999, A charity aimed at supporting emergency services mental health. CEO Gary has provided more information below please take the time to read, you or someone you know could need them.
PTSD was set up in 2015 by friends Gary and Simon, both of whom served within the Military and Public Sector.
As a result of their duties both have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
They realised that there wasn't any widely available accessible support for serving, or who had served, within the Emergency Services, and their families, living with PTSD.
So they set about creating an organisation that could provide support, source and fund treatment, training and raise awareness of the impact PTSD has on a persons life.
PTSD999 was operating as a not-for profit social enterprise since formation and in 2024 they were awarded full charity status.
We are committed to supporting our Emergency Service workers and our aim is to ensure that awareness of PTSD within the Emergency Services grows and the Stigma associated with it, and other mental health conditions, is broken.
