Who is doing the research and why
Forces in Mind Trust (FiMT) has commissioned QinetiQ and RAND to undertake a study to explore the transition from military to civilian life. The research will help to further understand what the transition process looks like today. It is intended that the outputs from the study will be used to inform the planning, development and delivery of services in the charitable sector and within local and central government.
