Juliette Méadel, the country’s junior minister for aid to victims, said last week that the “resilience” support centres would provide psychological support to those who had been badly injured in, or witnessed, a bloody attack. Ms Méadel said the centre would be run by “qualified” volunteers, including doctors, psychologists and child psychiatrists.
