Councillor Whittle said:"It is all about doing what we can to help soldiers coming out of the forces. "When he steps out of the gate he is Mr Lonely, with a wad of cash and tempted to spent it all. But there is no more coming in and they have to find a home and a job." Councillor Whittle said the town council is well placed to help squaddies taking their first faltering steps in 'civvy street', and he praised the role of fellow veteran and town councillor Ian Nellins for his role in getting the covenant signed.
