A Former Royal Marine who served 15 years as a bugler in HM Band of the Royal Marines has had his life has turned around because of the support provided by RMA – The Royal Marines Charity.
Paul ‘Baz’ Barrett was recruited to RMA – The Royal Marines Charity as a Transition Support Officer (TSO) based out of 45 Commando in Arbroath.
His appointment followed a pilot initiative conducted during 2020/2021 that evidenced the need for the Charity to establish a permanent presence in Scotland. He is a former Royal Marine and upper leg amputee following injuries sustained during the Afghanistan conflict.
There has never been more demand for the through-life services the Charity provides to Royal Marines and their dependants. Last year, more than 22,000 individuals turned to them for help of one kind or another – that’s equivalent to the entire population of a medium sized town such as Dorchester or Kenilworth.
