Gulf War Group

VeteranThe Gulf War Group has been set up to try and improve the welfare provision and compensation for veterans of the 1990/91 Gulf War.  We will press for further research into Gulf War Illnesses, and hope to ensure that any lessons learnt from the ill health effects of this inform future Government policy.  In order to do this, we welcome partnership from other organisations, for the benefit of Gulf War Veterans.  To read the latest updates, please choose from the documents below.

We held a conference for Gulf War Veterans on 9 May 2007.  For more information, please click here.  In preparation for this, The Royal British Legion produced a policy statement on Gulf War Syndrome, on behalf of the Gulf War Group.  Click here to read the document.
