Hawkhurst, Kent

The random postcode generator takes us to Steve Davies, an ex-army corporal. He's on a mission to restore military gravestones and help veterans suffering from PTSD.

In the first episode of a new series, the random postcode generator takes us to Hawkhurst in Kent, a prosperous village near Tunbridge Wells. Near the church lives Steve Davies, an ex-army corporal, who served in Northern Ireland at the height of the Troubles. He's on a mission to clean and restore local military gravestones and has done over 100. But he also wants to help living veterans who, suffer from PTSD or, like himself, anxiety and depression. Can he and his friends intervene to stop more ex-forces men from committing suicide?

Future episodes in the series take producers Jolyon Jenkins and Polly Weston to Lowestoft, Welwyn Garden City, Eastbourne, and Haringey
