    In this episode of the Wild Cards podcast, Alex Preece sits down with Paul Minter, the founder of Head Up, a mental health charity for the armed forces community.

    Like Alex, Paul also served his country, serving 18 years with the Household Cavalry Regiment and completing five frontline tours, including four in Afghanistan and one in Iraq.
