The Veterans’ Survival Guide Update – Prison Request
#TeamJimmy were delighted to receive a request from HMP Hollesley Bay D Cat prison for 6 Veterans’ Survival Guides. The request came from one of their resident veterans and was facilitated by an information Advice and Guidance Advisor. #TeamJimmy were able to supply a copy of The Guide as well as an e-book version. Here is an excerpt from their email:
‘…the veteran who instigated this endeavour would like to pass on how grateful he is, and will certainly spread the word now that we have the resource at our fingertips.’
We hope that all the veteran residents at HMP Hollesley Bay find Jimmy’s book insightful, practical and hopeful as they navigate their way around all the varying aspects of Combat-Related PTSD.
Prison Requests for Jimmy’s Books
Since The Veterans’ Survival Guide was first published in 2016 Jimmy has received a number of direct requests for copies of The Veterans’ Survival Guide and the Break Off Programme. Including requests from:
- HMP Barlinnie
- HMP Warren Hill
- HMP Doncaster
- HMP Durham
- HMP Hewell
- As well as a request for an audio copy of The Guide from HMP Channings Wood!
#TeamJimmy have a very limited number of paper copies of The Veterans’ Guide and sadly we are unable to supply 6 copies to HMP Hollesley Bay. However, we are exploring a 500 book re-print option and hope to have an update about this soon.
