Troubles victims express frustration over support
Many bereaved victims of the North’s conflict decided not to apply for financial help after those that did were left stressed and frustrated, the region’s largest victims group has claimed.
Calls were not returned, claims to cover the cost of befriending or counselling were delayed and onerous paperwork requirements left some who lost loved ones feeling it was not worth using the Victims and Survivors’ Service (VSS), a report from the Wave Trauma Centre said.
