After 10 detailed assessments by HBF's clinicians and HRNN's casework with over 140 individuals, they found that the men have displayed symptoms of worsening mental health following their transfer to the camp. This includes low mood, loneliness, flashbacks, reduced appetite, weight loss, feelings of despair and difficulty sleeping, and a worsening in symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
