Protecting those who protect us
Carecoins is creating the first therapist-led 24/7 helpline for veterans in the UK. Providing immediate support whenever and wherever they need it.
1 in 10 veterans are believed to experience post traumatic stress disorder in the UK, with 28% experiencing depression, anxiety or adjustment disorders.
These figures are all higher than the national average, and show the immense mental health pressure that veterans experience in civilian life.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. Carecoins is creating a unique support service specifically for veterans.
Human to human
There are many support lines out there for veterans, and they play a vital role in giving support back to those veterans in need.
But most aren’t staffed by qualified therapists, and have access to ongoing therapy support. That’s where Carecoins 24/7 therapist led helpline comes in.
Carecoins Community is building something different: a future 24/7 student support line that is human, therapist-led, and clinically informed.
How it works
Carecoins are simple credits that give you access to the hand-matched therapy, expert-led mental health training and wellbeing support. You only pay for what you use - no wasted budget, no monthly fees, and complete flexibility to access the support you need, through our hand vetted national network of BACP registered therapists.
AI is great for shopping lists. It’s rubbish for mental health support.
Many veterans are being forced to turn to Ai chatbots or apps in order get the support they need. While AI can do many things, it can’t provide that human to human connection, powerful empathy or understanding of human experience that a real person can.
Our 24/7 helpline will mean that no matter when a veteran might be struggling, there will always be someone there to speak to, training as a therapist and able to signpost on to another human being for ongoing support.

Being able to speak to someone who listened and didn’t judge me for what I was feeling felt like having a weight lifted from my chest

The training they provided helped me to understand what many of my group had been going through. The trainer did such a good job of leading us through a sensitive subject, particularly the suicide section
Andy
I didn’t know what the point would be of speaking to a therapist. I’ll be honest I thought I’d hate it. But it’s been the best thing I’d done and I wish I’d done it sooner!
