How we remember

Three per cent of rough sleepers are veterans. According to our latest vendor survey, the figure is the same for Big Issue sellers who have previously served in the armed forces.

As Remembrance Day approaches, it’s a fitting time to look at whether sufficient support is available for people dealing with the physical and psychological toll of service and financial fallout. And in this week’s magazine, our vendors also reflect on what Remembrance means to them.
